"Mr. Chambers can we have a word with you?"

So last night around dinner time there was heavy pounding at the door. I opened it to find two AZ highway patrol officers standing there.

Are you Mr. Chambers?

Yes.

Mr. Chambers can we have a word with you outside?

Sure.

Do you drive a Ford F150?

Yes?

Where is it?

Out in the parking lot.

Are you sure?

It should be?

We go out and there it is. They proceed to ask me how long I've owned, when it was registered in AZ, etc. They run the VIN and check my registration. After some chit chat with one of the officers the other came back with this...

Turns out my license plate was stolen, replaced with another stolen plate and mine was put on another F150 that was totaled in a hit and run!!! I didn't even know it happened or when. They confiscated the stolen plate off my truck, I filed a police report and got a new plate this morning.

How crazy is that shit?!!! BTW the new plate's been secured with Torx bolts.

always wondered about that. The torx are a good idea - make someone look elsewhere in that case if they are in a hurry.

It's not often you come up with a practical reason for vanity plates. I'm sure I'd notice quick if instead of FUN UP my bike suddenly said MRK407 or something.

I have a buddy on the LAPD who has 'I [heart] VAGIN' on his truck. Hilarious!!

That's not the kind of dinner guests you want! Must have been a few unpleasent moments for you while they figured it out. Glad it worked out in the end. Good idea, the torx.

I know vegan is someone who does not eat meat.
I know a virgin is someone who has not had sex yet.
I still don't know wtf a "vagin" is ........:huh:
I'm leaning on a "southern" enunciation of one or the other of those....
"Hey Leroy, lookie there, that thar's one of them Vagins!"

Torx bolts it is.

For years I've taken a razor blade and slashed up the tag to keep people from peeling it off in one piece - but I see now we have new breed of the Creep'n Cruds...

I had an Aunt & Uncle who were selling their Caddie. Two guys come by to look at it and take it for a test drive. They drive to a guy who is selling his Mercedes. Drop Auntie's Caddie off at that guys house and drive away with the mercedes. Pretty damned slick.

Very cunning in replacing your plate so you would not notice and report it
Gives them more time to do what ever they had planned
Dont you hate it when the scumbags get smart :eeek:
