Don't expect me to clean that up.
Posted by: Clara Clifford | September 28, 2008 at 04:20 PM
I'm willing to bet the thief is, oh, say, a plumber.

Cop: Now, just take your time.
Witness at lineup: I don't know. He had on a toolbelt like they're all wearing. Maybe that one there, toward the left...
Cop: Number 4, face the wall and squat; lean forward a little.
Witness: Oh my God! That's him!

I think the real problem here is that there aren't enough spare toilet parts in Sacramento.
And now, this wannabe plumber is taking the last of the working ones for himself.
And he will be called "Toilet Man!"

Should I be concerned that the police have surveillance photos of a man stealing toilet parts?
Posted by: cowhand214 | September 28, 2008 at 06:44 PM
Witness #1: I think that's him! Toilet Man! Third picture from the left.
Witness #2: Are you sure? He looks a bit flushed.
Posted by: cowhand214 | September 28, 2008 at 06:47 PM
He'll claim some sort of mental defense, like he's a psycho-ceramic. You know, a crackpot.
Posted by: SW | September 28, 2008 at 07:03 PM
Cops, when they nabbed him: "Urinal lot of trouble now, buster."

For anyone who's interested, 60 Minutes (which is on now) will devote its final story tonite to the Large Hadron Collider. Wouldn't it be cool if Steve Kroft said "What does this button do?" and set off a chain reaction that blew up the Earth??

Posted by: azred | September 28, 2008 at 08:14 PM
Alright! We've got you surrounded! Come out with your pants up!
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | September 28, 2008 at 08:23 PM
Stealing toilet parts? That guy's plumb crazy.
Posted by: Just Ducky | September 28, 2008 at 08:59 PM
*SNORKS* Meanie and Ducky... I've even forgotten the original story, but those comments deserve *snorks* anyway... (Goes back to original story to know why I'm snorking...)

WeI should cease and desist IMMEDIATELY!!!Posted by: frodolives | September 28, 2008 at 09:33 PM
Apparently the thief is still on the run. The cops must not have jiggled the handle.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | September 28, 2008 at 09:54 PM
He holed up in a porta-potty, but the police flushed him out.
Posted by: SW | September 28, 2008 at 10:13 PM
He's now headed for the tank.

This just in: the thief was seen driving a brown 1972 Cadillac. Sacramento police, in a rare moment of frivolity, have dubbed it the Septic Tank.
Posted by: Tony Field | September 29, 2008 at 12:05 AM
Update: the thief has been traced to a neighborhood in Flushing Meadows. SWAT (Septic Waste And Treatment) teams have sealed off the area.
Posted by: Tony Field | September 29, 2008 at 12:11 AM
Latest from Flushing Meadows: The thief has been identified as "Porcelain" Pete Sylvester, his fetish caused by over-zealous potty training (which apparently continued well into his teens).
Posted by: Tony Field | September 29, 2008 at 12:19 AM
He heard that the economy's going down the toilet and merely wanted to prevent it.
