If we take her to Mexico she'll never come back (uh, yeah, right) ...

    From News of the Weird ... (and what's up with "No Nose"?)

    ■ Donald Turk, 48, and two associates were charged in Lake Elsinore, Calif., in September with kidnapping Turk’s girlfriend, whom Turk was trying to push out of his life because she annoyed him. His plan, allegedly, was to take her to Mexico, drop her off, and hope that she would not return home. However, she was back several hours later, demanding that Turk pay off the cab driver who had driven her from the border. Arrested with Turk was a 47-year-old pal nicknamed “No Nose” because he has a hole in the middle of his face as the result of a gunshot. Said police Det. Joe Greco, “(This case) is like something out of a Quentin Tarantino movie.”

    Actually, a police detective named Joe Greco sounds like something out of a Tarantino movie.
     
  4. This sounds more like the stupid criminals of My Name is Earl: Treating the girlfriend like an unwanted dog, only to have her return a couple of hours in a cab, asking her "kidnapper" for cab fare.

    When I was in college, some of the guys hauled a pledge off to the next state over and dropped him off in the proverbial middle of nowhere.

    He was a student pilot. Knew a guy in a town nearby who also flew.

    The kid was sitting on the couch in the frat house by the time the guys got back.

    Brilliant.

    What'd his "brothers" do and say when he got back?
