Captain Koons
I laughed my head off when I read the story below about a kidnapper hiding a stolen watch up his ass (or rectum) as the Times reports, more correctly.
Because it reminded me of the great scene in Pulp Fiction where Christopher Walken almost steals the whole movie with his scary portrayal of Captain Koons who visits the young Butch (the young Bruce Willis character) - to return his father's watch.
Now the watch plays an important part in the film and has an very interesting history, to say the least, which involves spending a considerable amount of time up different people's asses - in an effort to keep the timepiece out of the clutches of the dreaded Vietcong.
So, I couldn't resist posting the clip of Captain Koons explaining all this to a mystified young Butch - no wonder he turned out to have such an eventful life.
Lap dancers in high heels ‘kidnapped boss over pay dispute’

A businessman who set up a “pop-up” nightclub to cater for fans attending a horseracing festival has described how he was kidnapped by three lap dancers dressed in miniskirts and high heels.
Curtis Woodman, 34, claims that he was forced into a car and driven to a field where he was forced at knifepoint to hand over his £4,600 Breitling watch and robbed of £60. Mr Woodman claims he was kicked and punched by two brothers who accompanied the three women and their manager.
The lap dancers Mandy Cool, 29, Rachel Goodchild, 24, Stephanie Pye, 31, their agent Charlotte Devaney, 34, and Robert Morris, 27, and Alexander Morris, 23, deny kidnapping Mr Woodman in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, in September 2012.
Bristol Crown Court has been told that the women claimed they had made £42,000 from one customer alone after working in the Embassy Club for three nights during the Cheltenham Festival. Mr Woodman refused to pay them, saying that the dancers broke their contract by stripping for customers, as a result of which his licence was withdrawn.
Mr Woodman told the court that the group drove up in two BMWs after he had agreed to meet them. He said: “Charlotte Devaney was shouting and screaming at me; they didn’t say exactly what they wanted to do, but there was an intention there to do something.
“I was pushed in, I struggled a little bit but the guy had a knife on him. I was worried for my safety. He [Alexander Morris] pushed me in the car and then came and sat next to me. I was terrified.”
The court heard that the women had hatched the kidnap plan after months of trying to get their money and had brought along Robert Morris, who was Miss Cool’s boyfriend, and his brother.
The jury were told that the kidnappers later stopped at a chip shop while Mr Woodman, who had managed to call a business partner who called the police, was kept in the car.
He told the court he feared for his life when Alexander Morris, who was holding a craft knife, demanded his watch.
He said: “He saw the watch and said: ‘Let’s have it then’. I was in fear of my life at this point, I didn’t have a clue what was going to happen.”
When Morris was arrested the watch was found in his rectum. Mr Woodman, who gave evidence from behind a screen, denied “100 per cent” that his claim of being kidnapped was a way to avoid paying his debt to the girls.
The trial continues.
