There was a "bank robbery".  A man in a ski mask was seen running out of the bank.  The cops asked me if I saw him.  I said "Yes.  What happened?"

"We think he robbed the bank.  Could you please describe him to me?"

"Sure, he had on a ski mask, he ran that way..."

"What color was the ski mask?"

"Oh,"  I thought for a minute.  "Navy blue?"

"Thanks!" the cops ran off.  I went home.  The next morning in the newspaper there was nothing about it.  I called the bank to ask what had happened.  Sounding surprised, the receptionist said "Why nothing happened.  A man in a black ski mask withdrew some money and then ran out of here, saying he was going to miss the bus."  We both laughed, I hung up and continued reading the paper.

My front door bell rang.

It was the police.

They arrested me for "Lying to investigators; I had told them the non-bank robber wore a navy blue ski mask, when in fact, it was black".

My name is Scooter Libby.
