I always enjoy a joke with a story line in it... but I just do not get it.... anyone else?!!

Suspect

Three contestants on a game show were trying to win prizes.

The emcee asked the first one, “for $3000 who invented the telephone”

“Alexandra Graham Bell,” she answered.

“Right you are and as an added bonus what is your home town”

“Orange Grove Florida” she answered. O.K. you will receive a year’s supply of the biggest and best oranges” said the emcee.

He asked the next one, now for $2000 who discovered America?

“Columbus she answered. Right and what is your home town? Asked the emcee.

Peach tree Georgia, she said. O.K. you will receive a year’s supply of the biggest and best peaches for a year”

He then asked the last one, “now for $1000 who was the first president”

“George Washington, she said” “Right you are” said the emcee

The lady screamed out “I beat you all and hit the jack pot!”

“How can you say that asked the other two, you only won $1000"

“I’m from Petersburg.” She replied.

Oh it's a US joke. She must have lied about where she is from, and she won those oranges. THey gave her the oranges as a bonus because what ever that stuff was was located in her "home towm"...At the end she ttells them she lied and shes from petersburg.

Well, if it's dirty I don't get it? I thought I did, although I can assume it has to od with the name.

Just noticed that when I went to logon that there is an ad under the Geeks Logo that says, "your Download Manager might be outdated. Do you want to install it now?" Don't fall for it! Ignore it!
