Slip 'n Slide

A Virginia man has been charged with felony criminal mischief for damaging a Motel 6 room in upstate New York. He was nabbed for slathering Vaseline on every single thing in Room 205--mattresses, pillows, sheets, furniture, carpeting, blankets, the TV, etc. A motel clerk discovered the damage after the man had checked out and called the Broome County Sheriff's Office. The same man also apparently slimed a nearby Super 8 Motel and was subsequently arrested at an Econo Lodge. When arrested, he was "smeared from head to foot with Vaseline." - via The Smoking Gun

But he didn't slip away from the police!

use washing-up liquid to wash vaseline out of your hair.

(zoe's tip of the day)

Good grief, what a mess. I'm glad I don't have to clean that up... If he slathered everything in the room how ARE they going to get it cleaned up? Gut the whole room and just start over?

And Oz made me snicker.

He was just trying to make sure that he didn't hit his elbows on any sharp corners. Like.. blankets...
