Crafty Bandits

Ok, so someone just told me a story about a woman who was recently arrested for selling stolen scrap-booking materials out of her living room. Apparently she was all the talk amongst the circles, scrap-booking that is, and everyone that was anyone knew that she had obviously stolen the goods, but the deals were so good that they all just continued to go diligently hush hush to her house to make their purchases. Hmmmmm, I mean, seriously, isn't aiding and abetting a crime, and with all those scrapbooks chock-full of evidence why weren't they all carted away to the pokey? However, on the other hand, can you blame her, or them, that stuffs expensive! Maybe she just wanted to "stick it to the man." One has to wonder; is the economy so bad that it's forcing scrap-booker's across the country into underground crime rings? After all, isn't that one of our basic rights; The Right to Bear Arms & The Right to Scrap-book. Perhaps the candidates will catch wind of it all and decide the issue needs to be added to their platforms. Hillary can demand lower prices and Obama change. Then Hillary can argue that she said "change" first and Obama can say; "ok, then lower prices." Then Hillary will say; "No wait, I said lower prices first." Obama can switch back saying; "change is inevitable", and so on and so forth until McCain, whose just waiting, can slingshot himself to the podium...who knows what he'll say, I haven't heard very much, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Maybe the ladies will take it upon themselves to hire Chuck Norris as their celebrity spokesperson. Ridding the country of all overpriced scrap-booking goods with a wave of his fist and a firm handshake. I hear he's looking for another gig and not to mention the fact that he may just inspire young men across the country, ages 18-22, to pick up the art of scrapbooking, creating a nationwide frenzy...but no, wait, then prices will surely skyrocket. But who cares, songs will be written and television shows produced. maybe even an action figure or two. Disney might even grab ahold of it all and produce an animated series. And don't worry about those ladies, the one's who started it all, they'll get their cut, someday...Maybe Maury Povich or Celebrity Fit Club...and we all know that Deal or No Deal ain't goin anywhere!
