He has to stay out of that Del Taco? I wouldn't want him in any Del Taco.
500 lbs and driving an SUV to steal food. Nice.

Is $15 worth of crappy, fat-laden, stomach-upsetting food really worth going to jail for? I think not.
Also - Why do really overweight people always seem to be nicknamed "Tiny?"

Maybe because the name "Einstein" was already taken.

Fat Fock. Send him to Ethiopia or some place where they eat tree bark. People like this guy disgust me.

500 lbs? He'll be dead soon.

What a jerk. I know some kids who used to do this stuff, but a grown man? Give me a break. Where's farmer bob?

sometimesilie, they should tie a taco to his back and let him run for his life in Ethiopia.

What kind of moron even jokes to a judge that he is going to repeat offend in the same manner?

LOL Mook! I'd watch that on You Tube!

The Ethopians would have a feast if they're cannibalistic....

So it states on your resume that your possible qualifications for this job are that you produced and starred in your own youtube video on how to scam free tacos. Get out of my office. Now. Lardass.
Smithers; release the hounds.

Jupiter Jim,
Tell Smithers to make sure they are the rabid ones.
Hey, I was in Hartford recently and thought of your commentary. Its not *that* bad, although it suffers from the state capitol syndrome (entire downtown taken up by law offices and government doo-dad offices.) I'm going up to Groton to the Electric Boat Museum--I want to see if they'll sell me a submarine preferably with torpedos.

Thanks Nell. Make certain you go to Foxwoods!
Groton is pretty close to that so it won't be that much of a trip. I used to have a cartoon on my office of a man driving into CT and the sign read "welcome to CT! $5.00 minumum bet"
They could sell you a sub. Just don't use a sunday coupon

Nicole...no need for farmer bob, at 500lbs I doubt he can find it anymore to procreate anyway.

"Smithers; release the hounds."
That made me laugh. Even funnier than reading about a man of "God" killed by a goat.

I'd felt i'd reached the epitome of jigglyness and feeling large and shitty at 220 pounds. I can't imagine getting up to 500.

Need to send this idiot back to meheeko.
I heard that elliot spitzball has a new job.
He's working at Taco John.

Where's the 500 pounds number coming from? I didn't see any mention of his weight in the article...did I miss it?
Posted by: Wolf | Mar 20, 2008 3:33:00 PM
This is nothing new; this idiot just decided to You Tube himself into jail where another you tube just might be opened.
Posted by: pawprints | Mar 21, 2008 3:23:59 AM
Wolf; you're right, the article doesn't mention his weight but Jim's lead in does.
