Pignapped!

So, I come back from lunch and find out that the pig I keep on my desk is missing and in its place there's a ransom note stating that if I want to see my pig again I should put $5000 (nice knowing you, pig) in unmarked bills in an envelop and leave it in the women's washroom (I'm not a woman, so I guess the pignapper is, which is no help at all since most staff here are women).

To buy time I have demanded to see a picture of the pig with today's newspaper to make sure it's still alive. The pig and I have an understanding of not negotiating in these cases, but we'll try to capture the evil pignappers.

Any ideas?

Have you considered randomly kidnapping co-workers and torturing them for information? That might turn up something. If it doesn't you can always sell video of the torture sessions as S&M porn on the internet to raise some ransom money.

Hey hey hey. It's not torture until you make an organ fail. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales told me so!

Anti-seize gel or petroleum jelly on door knobs works wonders too. Anti-seize is more fun because it's graphite suspended in an oil based gel, and it's a bitch to clean off your hands. You end up being silver for a half dozen washes.

That is a great idea the only slight problem with that is they'd know it was you who stole there stuff.

I kidnapped a co-workers Elmo doll once. I made a ransom note out of old magazines and strapped some firecrackers to it then took a polaroid of it demanding I don't remember what, cookies or something.

Unfortunately a rescue mission was staged and it was saved from its lens case prison (It was in a projection booth)

Is it a living pig?

I'd setup a trap of sorts. Have a trustable female friend stay in the bathroom, switching stalls ever now and then. As soon as she hears the ransom money being taken, she can jump out and tackle the pignapper.

Honestly, I'd say it's a prank.

No way, pignapping plastic pigs off peoples office desks are a big problem in most major US cities. Its hard to get a permit to raise them in the city so they are a lot more rare than in the country and more in demand.

This should teach you two important lessons:
1. Do not go out for lunch while your pig is on your desk, waiting for you.
2. Do not call your female coworkers pigs. Especially if they are willing to mount your desk.

My favorite one liners -- as Snaps is disarming one of his guys.... and it takes a couple minutes....

"It's like disarming Germany!"



And, "Doc is right! you're an ox, and a moron!"
And, (the doctor to his daughter), "You have such lovely rounded dipthongs."

And...
"Hey, Look! It's Li'l An't'ny.... and his Imperial!"

It's been a while, but that movie always gives me the giggles.

The pig will probably return once she (we assume) is tired of the ransom game. She may play around by taking pictures of it, etc. Try to just enjoy the prank. :)

After all, I doubt anyone would seriously expect to get that much money for a plastic pig that could easily be replaced for much less.

;) Go to the dollar store and buy toy money.

Or draw a "five thousand dollar bill" and leave it next to the rest room.

Or print out one of these (the face only, of course -- and on a weird colored paper, and NOT six inches long..... just to be paranoid-safe).

Get the fake money, and demand a neutral meeting point in a public place, with no weapons; then launch some daredevil insane scheme involving jumping of a bridge of keeping both.
