Ach! My retirement grease! Oklahoma police are looking for grease bandits who made off with 5,000 pounds of used cooking oil and grease from three restaurants. If you have to ask about the Simpsons reference. . .

  • Odd thing to want, and in such quantity. Suppose I'd start looking around for the nearest greased pole event, although 5000 pounds sounds somewhat excessive even for a fraternity escapade.
  • GREASE BOMBS!! The terrorists have already won.
  • Actually, I'd look for more thefts like these. Bio-diesel is becoming a much more common fuel. You can get a diesel engine, or a turbine for that matter, to run on peanut oil if it trips your trigger. I have a friend in Texas whose been making his own biodiesel for his F350 Cummins for over a year now. Hmmmm...need to see if he's been making any midnight runs to Oklahoma.
  • I'M from North Kilt-Town!
  • But why used oil and grease?
  • Forget grease, won't anybody think of the avocados!?
  • It gets recycled into animal feed, lubricant, and bio-diesel. Grease-napping is apparently a popular criminal activity in some areas.
  • heh, grease-napping.
  • i prefer grease-mongering
  • grease me up woman.
  • This thread is gonna slide down hill faster than a pig on a greased skidway. I predict it.
  • what's that word . . ?
