    Police are on the lookout for a bunch of ragamuffins singing "Consider yourself part of the furniture."

    @econdave: the assailants seemed to have dodged the police extremely well. Almost artfully, if you will.

    Ballard was walking back to his hotel after Saturday night's semi-final games at Ford Field when he stopped to assist a man who appeared to be suffering a seizure on a sidewalk.


    Fuckin' Michael J. Fox. There are much better ways to raise money for Parkinson's, you asshole.

    They should be somewhat easy to spot, what with their ragged clothing and Cockney accents.

    Frankly, I want to become an inverse-pickpocket. I'll get on a packed train or push through a crowd and slip things into unsuspecting strangers' bags and jackets.


    Cute little mementos of a good time they never had, like little pink panties, a business card from an escort service and a mini bottle of Courvoisier.


    Maybe I'll branch out and start introducing people's pockets to things like unwrapped Hershey bars, overripe blackberries and cat turds.

    I remember last year, during the National Spelling Bee, when DC got invaded by a nationally known group of professional nose pickers.

    The Mayor was surprised. He's use to being rolled by the hooker in the hotel room.

    It did remind him of his last trip to Gary, so I guess that's a good thing.

    ...warning in advance of the event that a nationally known group of professional pickpockets...


    Excellent use of a necessary qualifier. I'm sure there are scads of sticky-fingered sneaks who are in it just for the thrill.

    Greg's brother Glen Ballard will be writing a song for Alanis Morisette about the incident. Tentative title is You Outta Know Better Than To Help Dudes Having Seizures.

    I'm surprised and dismayed to learn that "But...but...I'm the Mayor of Indianapolis!" doesn't carry as much influence as I previously believed.

    Why were the police expecting the professional group of pickpockets? Wasn't the auto industry already in Detroit?
