I am embarrassed to say that, when I was a kid, we did the same on Sunday  
afternoons in Providence, RI. That was years ago and I am not signing my 
name. 
 
Now I pull my kid's teeth out to get money from the Tooth Fairy.

A  slightly automotive but brilliant scam.....

*A Well-Planned Retirement*  *From The London Times:*

Outside the Bristol Zoo, in England, there is  a parking lot for 150 cars 
and
8 coaches, or buses.

It was manned by  a very pleasant attendant with a ticket machine charging
cars ?1 (about  $1.40) and coaches ?5 (about $7).  
This parking attendant worked  there for all of 25 years. Then, one day, he
just didn't turn up for  work.

"Oh well", said Bristol Zoo Management - "we'd better phone up  the City
Council and get them to send a new parking attendant..."
"Er  ... no", said the Council, "that parking lot is your responsibility."
"Er  ... no", said Bristol Zoo Management, "the attendant was employed by  
the
City Council, wasn't he?"
"Er ... NO!" insisted the  Council.

Sitting in his villa somewhere on the coast of Spain, is a  bloke who had
been taking the parking lot fees, estimated at ?400 (about  $560) per day at
Bristol Zoo for the last 25 years. Assuming 7 days a week,  this amounts to
just over ?3.6 million ($7 million)

And no one even  knows his name!
