I have no doubt about it.

Alternate title suggestion:
"A Man Exposed His Rear, While Moving a Deer"? (perhaps a catchy idea for a song lyric?)
This could just be categorized as "plumbers' crack escalation syndrome".
In his defense: when a hard-working man is working hard, personal modesty sometimes just falls by the wayside.

I was living in Boston when one day, reading the Globe, I saw a news article from the rinky dink town I grew up in.
This was around 1990 and we called ATMs MAC machines. Anyway, this guy borrows a friend's pickup truck for the night and he and 2 buddies steal a forklift from the Municipal Building. You see where this is going ...
They got caught the next day when the guy that owned the pickup noticed "MAC" imprinted on his truck bed.
Doh!!

They got caught the next day when the guy that owned the pickup noticed "MAC" imprinted on his truck bed. Doh!! A similar thing happened here back in the 1990s. Some goobs decided it might be a good idea to steal the ATM from in front of a bank; this was in the days before ATMs were mounted in a wall; this one was bolted to the sidewalk. So they put some duct tape over the truck's tag (good thinking! There are probably surveillance cameras!) and drove to the bank at oh-dark-thirty. They backed up their truck to the ATM, hopped out, tossed a logging chain around the machine, and hooked the other end to the truck's bumper. "Hit the gas, Floyd!" There was a screech tires and a hard jolt, but the ATM remained firmly in place. Alarms were going off. The chain must've broken! "Hit the gas, Floyd!" When the cops showed up, they found the ATM with its heels still dug in hard...along with the chain, still attached to the truck's bumper. They peeled off the duct tape and then paid a visit to the owner's address. |
