This is some funny stuff!!!

If you have ever wondered about the intelligence level of
government
bureaucrats this will resolve your quandary!!

This is an actual case.....

A New Orleans lawyer sought an FHA loan for a client. He
was told the loan
would be granted if he could prove satisfactory title to a
parcel of
property being offered as collateral.

The title to the property dated back to 1803, which took
the lawyer three
months to track down. After sending the information to the
FHA, he
received the following reply:

(actual letter)

"Upon review of your letter adjoining your client's loan
application, we
note that the request is supported by an Abstract of Title.
While we
compliment the able manner in which you have prepared and
presented the
application, we must point out that you have only cleared
title to the
proposed collateral property back to 1803. Before final
approval can be
accorded, it will be necessary to clear the title back to
its origin."

Annoyed, the lawyer responded as follows:

(actual letter)

"Your letter regarding title in Case No. 189156 has been
received. I note
that you wish to have title extended further than the 194
years covered by
the present application. I was unaware that any educated
person in this
country, particularly those working in the property area,
would not know
that Louisiana was purchased by the U.S. from France in
1803, the year of
origin identified in our application. For the edification
of uninformed
FHA bureaucrats, the title to the land prior to U.S.
ownership was obtained
from France, which had acquired it by Right of Conquest
from Spain. The
land came into possession of Spain by Right of Discovery
made in the year
1492 by a sea captain named Christopher Columbus, who had
been granted the
privilege of seeking a new route to India by the then
reigning monarch,
Isabella. The good queen, being a pious woman and careful
about titles,
almost as much as the FHA, took the precaution of securing
the blessing of
the Pope before she sold her jewels to fund Columbus'
expedition."

"Now the Pope, as I'm sure you know, is the emissary of
Jesus Christ, the
Son of God. And God, it is commonly accepted, created the
world.
Therefor, I believe it is safe to presume that He also made
that part of
the world called Louisiana. He, therefor, would be the
owner of origin."

"I hope to hell you find His original claim to be
satisfactory. Now, may
we have our damn loan?"

They got it.

 

now that ***** funny LMAO!!
