I wonder how many people have referenced the Septic Tank Thief to Joe Dirt. Its kind of fitting, but somewhat esoteric.

One of the lost treasures we wish we had on film, to see his face as he realizes his mistake . . . or better, just as he's siphoning, throw on the floodlights and camera crew -- Candid Camera!

I cannot be pictured!

What were your perceptions closer to: Snake Plisken, Bob Ross, or SNL-HBO transition Dennis Miller?

That real picture is one of my less sinister looks.

Two years. And I've been alternating between two other identical green shirts. I only wear my trademark button shirt on occassion.

New "OMG Reel Fox" image in my sig. I have TWO eyepatches! Oh... wait. Those are my set sunglasses. And that's my second sword. And there's my set shirt. And hair. And "room where I put stuff" in the background.

Aggravating, inane, totally unfun fact: Halious Crevan's (from SWG) looks are a carbon copy of Snake Plisken, sans eye patch.

Ay'm too good 'a pirate to lost n'eye. Though I do lose me right eye three times, I just take someone else's and stick it right into me head, yaar.

New York bans used panties
Thu 27 May, 2004 03:47

By Christine Kearney

NEW YORK (Reuters) - In the latest act of sanitising New York's mean streets, lawmakers want to rid the city of a scourge most people are not even aware of -- previously worn lingerie being sold as new merchandise.

Council members are mulling the proposed legislation after watching a local television news broadcast which claimed leading department stores, including Saks Fifth Avenue and Macy's, had tried to resell returned undergarments.

Under current law, stores do not have to state whether undergarments on sale, including women's panties and thongs, have been bought and returned, although certain stores have developed their own policies.

"This is a major consumer and health issue in that the amount of bacteria that can be transported from one person to another in just one wearing can be a health hazard," said council member Tony Avella.

"When you talk about it people start to giggle as it is a tough subject to discuss."

Spokeswoman Elina Kazan said Macy's does not sell worn undergarments and posts signs in changing rooms that intimate apparel should not be tried on for size on top of bare skin.

"We train our associates to inspect the merchandise upon return and if in salable condition, return it to the sales floor," she said. "Any items that are soiled ... are not returned to the floor."

The council plans further discussions to decide if the bill should exclude brassieres, undershirts, socks and bathing suits, before being put to a council vote later this year.

Saks did not return calls for comment.

Donald Halperin of the New York Metropolitan Retailers Association said the issue was mainly about women's undergarments because women care more about such issues more than men.

You guys would still buy my panties right? Lolololol

This sounds like something Den might try oh wait that was a NINJA pirate not a samurai...my bad:

YORK, England -- A man who broke into an animal shelter armed with a samurai sword and an air rifle to retrieve his dog was jailed for 15 months on Wednesday.

Paul Lovie, 47, broke into the shelter run by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in York, northern England, in March to find his Jack Russell terrier.

Lovie was devastated when vets told him his pet was ill and needed to be euthanized, and he could not afford the bill.

Shelter officials confiscated the dog after Lovie was overheard saying he would "do it himself with a pickax," prosecutors said.

"He decided to take matters into his own hands and go and get the dog," prosecutor Dianne Campbell told the court. Once inside the shelter, Lovie, who also had lighter fluid and a hammer, called police and threatened staff.

Armed police arrived and Lovie surrendered after 90 minutes of negotiations.

He pleaded guilty to possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear or violence, having an offensive weapon and criminal damage.

Judge Paul Hoffmann said Lovie was lucky to be alive.

"There are too many incidents of people taking firearms out with them, then they complain when the police shoot them," the judge said.

Catherine Silverton, Lovie's lawyer, said her client had no previous convictions and his actions were completely out of character. "He was extremely emotionally dependent on this dog and he is devastated," she said. The dog has died.

He's like a ninja-white-version-of-Shaft-with-a-fro! All he's missing is the annoying repeating parrot.

Den: Yaar!
Polly: *Squawk* Yaar! *Whistles*
Den: Heres some soda crackers, now stfu.
Polly:... indeed.
