I don't know how to steak someone's Christmas presents. ;)

I did use my neighbor's keys to get some ice from them. I had taken care of their cats and went back later and "borrowed" some ice cubes. I guess I still owe them some ice.
Life is good!

I prosecuted a guy one time for breaking in his ex-wife's house and stealing lingerie and ice.

What's the penalty for stealing ice? Can you place a dollar amount on frozen water?

Any item that has value, even if the value is measured in fractions of a cent, will do for larceny. But he stole the ice tray along with the ice, so we didn't end up fighting that battle.

So if things heat up in the courtroom, will the defendent have a watered down defense?

God allmighty that was lame.

It was lame.

All you can do is then is just tray, tray again.

Ice, ice, baby.

Could you produce the ice as evidence? No? What? You claim it melted? Oh, they put it in a glass and it melted in ALCOHOL? And then they ate the remnants? A likely story. Case dismissed.

Defendant's statement was he took the lingerie back because he gave it to his wife and didn't want his brother :-o to see her parading around in the yummy (and VERY LARGE) undies he had bought her. The ice? (and believe me, we all had X-rated thoughts about ice and lingerie) was because he was out of ice at his house and his kid wanted a cold drink. Of course.

Reminds me of the movie "True Lies".

"Same thing happened to me with wife number two, 'member? I have no idea nothing's going on, right? I come home one day and the house is empty, and I mean completely empty. She even took the ice cube trays out of the freezer. What kind of a sick bitch takes the ICE CUBE trays out of the FREEZER?"

Great line. :D

I have a fraternity brother who woke up one afternoon in his underwear in his room on the floor, and there was nothing else in the room. I mean absolutely nothing but the paint on the walls and a couple of dust bunnies on the floor. When he had passed out, fully clothed, in the wee hours of the morning before, his dorm room was fully "stocked" as any other sophomore's room would be, with furniture, clothing, stuff on the walls, etc. Courtesy of Ace Moving Company ;) B-)
