His name was Bubba, he was from Texas ... And he needed a loan, So...
He walked into a bank in New York City and asked for the loan
Officer. He told the loan officer that he was going to Paris for an
International Redneck Festival for two weeks and needed to borrow
$5,000, and that he was not a depositor of the bank.

The bank officer told him that the bank would need some form of security for the loan, so the Redneck handed over the keys to a new Ferrari. The car was
parked on the street in front of the bank.

The Redneck produced the title and everything checked out. The loan officer agreed to hold the car as collateral for the loan and apologized for having to charge 12% interest.

Later, the bank's president and its officers all enjoyed a good laugh
at the Redneck from the Texas for using a $250,000 Ferrari as
collateral for a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drove the Ferrari into the
bank's private underground garage and parked it.

Two weeks later, the Redneck returned, repaid the $5,000 and the
interest of 23.07. The loan officer said, "Sir, we are very happy to
have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very
nicely, but we are a little puzzled.

While you were away, we checked you out on Dunn & Bradstreet and found that you are a distinguished alumni from Texas A & M, a highly sophisticated investor and multi-millionaire with real estate and financial interests all over the world. Your investments include a large number of wind turbines around Sweetwater, Texas. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"

The good 'ole boy replied, "Where else in New York City can I park my
car for two weeks for only $23.07 and expect it to be there when I return?"

His name was BUBBA.... Keep an eye on those Texas boys!

Just because we talk funny does not mean we are stupid !!!

Careful I'm from a Romany [I was adopted at six weeks] family, though I know your only joking and it was only in a movie however Romany's dont take kindly to the term Pikey .
We are the true traveling folk the travelers in the movie where Tinkers who originate from Ireland and give Gypsy's in general a bad name
My Birth Name was Kevin Marshall and the Marshall clan came to the UK as horse traders who looked after the horses in the Norman conquest of the UK
I traced my family about ten years ago only to find that thanx to both my Grandfather and his Father where kicked to death by horses, forcing the family to move away from their people to live in a house most probably because they marry for life and they didnt have another male heir to run the family's trade

Interesting I love family history. And yes I was being funny no offense intended.

I searched my English side back and they (Foster's) immigrated to the new world in the 1600's and from there it's hard to say, but the Foster's were Norman's who went into France Via Belgium and were originally known as the Forester's of Flanders (because they lived in the forest clever huh?)
