No wonder the price of things has gone up with shoplifters like this around.

4. I saw this on the morning news!
They also noted that he goes for the same brand of chips every time. I guess he has a favorite. :)

6. Oh, what a "cheeky" rascal.-LOL
During a trip to Mexico, a gull swooped down
and plucked a pastry right off a plate on our little
patio table.

He helped himself to breakfast!

We didn't see him at first, and wondered,
" who took the pastry?"

:rofl:

7. Hey - that's less than a mile from my house!
You know what the funniest thing about this story is? The store is almost directly opposite the Aberdeen criminal courthouse!

So we can expect an arrest sometime in 2010 :evilgrin:
