Hey Guys,

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping at Home Depot. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you.
Here's how the scam works: Two seriously good-looking 19-year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping items into the trunk.

They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts.

It is impossible not to look.

When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say "No" and instead ask you for a ride to another Home Depot.

You agree and they both climb in the passenger seat, one sitting on the other's lap.

On the way, they start kissing each other ...

Then one of them turns to you to perform the nasty with you, while the other one steals your wallet.

I had my wallet stolen March 11th, 13th, twice on the 15th, on the 17th, 20th, April 3rd, 7th, 16th, two times just yesterday, and very likely again this upcoming weekend as soon as I can buy some more wallets.

Just a friendly warning.

Dennis-Shame on you for saying such terrible things about two sweet young girls.I know them, and they are just trying to make the world a better place by bringing a little sunshine into the lives of middle aged men, like yourself, who look like they need a clear view of the road and a little love.









PS: Let me know if you want your wallets back (but not the money)

Hi Dennis - No, I won't be ready for the tune-up race tomorrow night. I still have some work to do on the boat and I have to get the windshield cleaned on my van.
