On Sept. 15th, I first brought you the story of a North Side fast food joint that had someone steal their fryer grease from the grease trap. Here's a more satirical view..
As I read the crime report, listing the theft, I couldn't help but think, "WHY?" I mean really, who steals used grease? What is the significance?
After speaking to the Golden Chick owner, he vented his frustration and disbelief, but added grease can be liquid gold. He described that used grease can be used as a form of diesel.
Now, I've heard about this being done, and I've heard of engines that run solely on the grease from restaurants like this... but I've never heard of someone syphoning off the stuff in a grease heist!
Please, understand I'm not making fun of the damages and lost money that will set this business or any others back... That is never a good thing. Nor do I condone the act of stealing grease.
But honestly, what's their master plan?
Will they steal so much grease that our fast food becomes dry, and dare I say, less greasy!?
Do they plan to hold Abilene hostage by holding the monopoly on grease?
What do they want from us!!???
Picture this, the master mind behind this grand theft sitting in his outlaw clubhouse/hideout, tapping his fingers together and chuckling a sinister laugh, as he plots his course to steal used fryer grease.
Sure, he probably weighed the risk, like what if there isn't enough? What happens if it spills out onto the ground, covering him in slick grease, or even worse, what if he gets caught...
But then he quickly dismissed it because, oh the smell of old chicken grease!
All the same, he's probably sitting at home just sniffing the grease and fighting back cravings for fried chicken and other fried foods.
Or maybe not.
Anyway, I've given my wild, imaginative view of this grease theft... but in reality, it's still a crime that needs a resolution. If you know anything, call Crimestoppers at 676-TIPS.
