SLIPPERY SLOPE:
Hilton escapes charges (The Age, February 3, 2005)
Prosecutors said today they will not file charges against Paris Hilton stemming from a scrape at a newsstand in which she allegedly pocketed a copy of her homemade sex video without paying.
Doesn't this raise the possibility that all of us will feel free to just swipe the sex videos we appear in? Posted by Orrin Judd at February 2, 2005 11:38 PM
They're probably letting her remain free in hopes she's steal all of the sex tapes, plus all the DVDs of the first three seasons of "The Simple Life". Once that's done, they can lock her up, throw away the key and then maybe in a few years all traces of Ms. Hilton will have gone down the nation's collective memory hole.

In your case [my case, too, no doubt], they would probably be happy to be rid of them.
Posted by: Jeff Guinn at February 3, 2005 7:14 AMCertainly in my case they would not only be effective birth control devices, but would also prevent the spread of STDs.

Posted by: oj at February 3, 2005 8:47 AMNot much market for any of the recent ones, I'm afraid, and they didn't even make video cameras back in those days.

Of course not, don't be silly! ...Just the ones where Paris Hilton also appears.
