First of all, I can't imagine that there's a huge black market for Chrysler parts. Of course, why else would anyone steal a Dodge Stratus? So I'm probably wrong.

Second, "shitty locks" is what the officer told us after someone tried to steal the Accord many years ago. Bastards scratched the wheels trying to get the wheel locks off, gave up and busted out the ignition trying to "hotwire" it. Second set of criminals just busted out the wing window. I no longer own a Honda.

Honda finally figured out a way to make the door locks better and now the Camry is the most stolen car for 6 years straight - what a title. Someday, Toyota will figure out what Honda did and will fix the shitty doorlocks.

Where do they find Japanese food craftsmen willing to put raw fish on a stripper? Where do they find strippers who can lay still for three hours without getting the DTs? And what do they use for a cutting board? Inquiring minds . . .

Also, of course, certain cars will always be higher up on the list due to the number of cars on the market. Accords and Camrys are among most stolen because they are among most produced/most purchased models. Many European makes lack the numbers in the US to make the list. I think the high Accord numbers for several years also had to do with marketability of parts.

Growing up as a VW owner, we were among the most broken into, but not stolen. That was because of the non-factory stereos. I can't even tell you how many times my stereo was stolen out of my Scirocco in college (five, if I had to guess). One time they used a crowbar to pry my passenger door handle off, costing me/my insurance co. (literally) thousands of dollars for a $100 stereo and an antiquated radar detector. Hey, fuckers, just break the fucking window.

I have probably been to stripper bars 300....400....500 times. I enjoy admiring the nuditity of nekkid women and am also a fan of the interpretive dance that can go along with stripping. However, I never much went in for this lapdancing phenomenon and I think mostly for $$$$ factor. Rather than lay down mucho benjis for pseudo sex, I would just assume drop a Grover or two, get a room at the W, a Pretty Woman to go and get my money's worth. Is this so wrong?

To me its comparable to the choice between watching Skinemax porn-lite and Cream Pie Party Girls #12 (or #8, those two are the best of the series) or Gang Bang Debutantes #36-if I want porn, I wanna see the whole enchilada (whether Vanessa Del Rio is in the movie or not).

Sorry, I left out the obligatory cite. That's what makes this list different. It goes by how many cars on the road v. # of steals. Kind of an odds game. HIgher for Escalade than Camry (due to sheer numbers).

Concur. And wistfully, as for many years the very weekend coming up was the weekend of my annual retreat to a remote lakeside town in BC, which retreat always culminated in a trip to Slack Alice's, where for 15 bucks, Canadian, I could get drunk and watch nubile 18 year old Canadian girls, from quaint hamlets such as Osoyoos, Spuzzum and Yak, exhibit their wares for 4 or 5 hours.

No tipping allowed and no cover charges.

The thought of it brings tears to my eyes.

Distance rules are enforced. On occasion. For example, last Saturday night, vice pulled a few dancers away and cited them, mid-dance, for violating the distance rules. This led to a serious, woefully unpleasant taming of the club, until vice left.

At least, that's what I heard.

And yes, *she* was there, in case anyone was wondering.

A fine example of investigative reporting. Do not believe the lies being spread by the liberal media elite - men are still being exploited by Bambi hunts.

Fox news is also reporting on the enduring influence of the true love between Ben and JLo on fashion.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,95076,00.html

I will not even mention Fox's hard-hitting expose on the blurring line between news and entertainment. Other than to say that it does not appear to be a joke.

Possibly, but have you ever tried to suck cock 8 hours a day? 2,400 hours per year? And what about all that pro-bono and administrative work? Heck, any number of Brobeck partners would have to put up 3,000+ "suckables" per year. That could give one a serious case of slackjaw, not to mention that it's just murder on the tonsils.

it wouldn't have been that big a deal, because the smart ones would know "to churn the file" as it were. "I know I've a towel around here, I just need to find it to use it for a knee pad..." crap like that to turn what should be 6.5 minutes and out, into .6 hours

Concur. 911 may be a joke but Vanessa Del Rio is as serious as an emergency, NPI. And if anyone questions that, I'm sure if she was to use her 5 inch clit to give you a good smack upside the head, NPI, you'd get religion real fast.

Great Job Titles

According to TIME.com, not that this is news ...

"Their cover is blown: JENNIFER GARNER is dating MICHAEL VARTAN, who plays her CIA handler on the TV show Alias. Garner was married to Scott Foley, who starred in Felicity, until the two split up in April. But don't even think it: Garner and Vartan have been dating only a few weeks ... "

When reading this, it occurred to me that if I could pick any job title to put on my business cards (and no, GA didn't make the top 50), "HANDLER" would definitely be my top choice.

Doubly so if it involved "handling" Jennifer Garner.

P (although I may change my mind if the upcoming CBS series "The Handler" starring Joe Pantoliano sucks ass) D

Which, to misuse a phrase, begs the question, why didn't we go to the nudie bar after the B-day bash last December? Considering that I had already dropped 5 Benjamins on a dinner that was a bare notch above a microwaved meal, not to mention another $50 on a horse and buggy ride around the Park, I would have gladly dropped some more benjis to see some betty drop some trou, so to speak*.
