FORT WORTH, Texas - Charles Ray Fuller must have been planning one big record company. The 21-year-old North Texas man was arrested last week for trying to cash a $360 billion check, saying he wanted to start a record business.

Fuller, of suburban Crowley, was arrested on a forgery charge. He was released after posting $3,750 bail.

 They had to call to verify a $360 billion check?

    Why is some butt-brownie from Fort Worth always trying to bring the whole metroplex down? We need to emancipate Fort Worth then invade it.
