Ok, So Thank You To Taffy For Making This Story Take On A WHOLE New Meaning....

Long time listeners of the podcast will know what I'm talking about here....

FORT PIERCE, Fla. – What would you do for a Klondike bar? Authorities said a man shoved an ice cream bar down his pants and then offered a Texaco station store owner $69 not to turn him in for shoplifting. The owner told police that a 65-year-old man tried to sneak the Klondike bar, along with packages of Ramen noodles and Famous Amos cookies, out of the store without paying Tuesday night.
When the store owner confronted the man as he tried the leave the store, the owner reported that the man pulled the flattened ice cream snack out of his back pocket and offered the owner $69 for it.
The owner called police, and the man was charged with retail theft and violation of probation charges. He was being held on $500 bail. (AP)
Why do I have the feeling that 69 DOLLARS is not what the guy was offering the cashier to not turn him in....
And again, where does this story take place? Florida, hurrah!
