½ a head of lettuce

Humbled

A man walked into a supermarket and asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy working in that department told him that they only sold whole heads of lettuce. The man was insistent that the boy ask the manager about the matter.

Walking into the back room, the boy said to the manager,”Some old bastard wants to buy a half a head of lettuce.”

Big Mistake!

PERTH – An SAS trooper collecting toys for children was stabbed when he helped
stop a suspected shoplifter in east Perth .

The ‘Toys-R-Us’ Store Manager told ‘The West Australian’ that man was seen on
surveillance cameras last Friday putting a laptop under his jacket at the store.

When confronted, the man became irate, knocked down an employee, pulled a knife
and ran toward the door.
Outside were four SAS Troopers collecting toys for the “Toys For Tots” program.

Smith said the Troopers stopped the man, but he stabbed one of them, in the back.
The cut did not appear to be severe. What happened next?
