Give me your money

Late one night, a mugger wearing a ski mask jumped into the path of a well-dressed man and stuck a gun in his ribs ``Give me your money,'' he demanded.

Indignant, the affluent man replied, ``You can't do this - I'm a United States Congressman!''

``In that case,'' replied the mugger, '`give me MY money.''
