The poor guy is not very attractive. What else is he going to do to get a date? He’s gotta throw money around.

Reggie Edwards, 52, was defended by the union and is now working at the Atlanta Intl Airport. Reggie, a devout Amish person, was alleged to say, “take that you crackers” as he departed on his flight to a new job in Atlanta.
