**Astronaut kidnapping scheme  
Tell us about crazy/risky things you’ve done to make your life better.**

How does kidnapping an astronaut make your life better? Do you demand a ransom from NASA to get him/her back?

It’s a news story. The astronaut was going to kidnap her lover’s wife and do away with her. Then her lover would be free to marry and all would be rainbows and roses. Didn’t quite work out.

Yeah, I remember that. The astronaut wore a diaper on the trip so she wouldn’t have to stop for bathroom breaks.

Second verse/same as the first

**I just stupidly destroyed a pan.**  
**Any Dopers in Japan?**

Sorry, dude, but no one’s going to take you in. The pan gestapo have a branch in Fukuoka. They will track you down wherever you hide. And the last sound you will hear before they throw you into a stinking pit to die will be the mockingly soft clink of the spatulas on their utility belts.
