No seriously, I had to pay double the amount of the fine to a charitable organization not to get a criminal record. It's called a conditional absolution.

Never anything more then a parking ticket. Well, when I was 17 I got arrested because a friend of mine vandalized a guys car (broke the car antenna and throw eggs at a parked car) of some guy he didn't like. He ran back to my car (and I didn't know he was going to do it) and then just screamed for me to "GO, GO, GO!!!" The guy's mom called 911 and we both got arrested though released on our own recognance. The charges were later dropped by the DA since 1) I didn't do anything 2) it was only a broken car antenna 3) the DA had better things to spend the court's time on.

Oh, I forgot. I did get a ticket for possessing an open container of alcohol in public when I was 22. I was leaving a club with about two sips of beer left in the bottle, it was Isla Vista so none of the employes cared (well the cops did), when two cops who were hanging in the shadows turned their mag lights on me (one on the bottle and the other in my eyes). One cops started to write me a ticket while the other went to go catch more drunken bastards carrying beer bottles and that's when the really funny part happened. This drunken blond chick dropped her panties and took a piss in the bushes just 10-15 feet behind the cop who was writting me the ticket. The cop was facing me and had his back to the girl so he didn't see her but I started laughing my ass off.

The cop asked me what I was laughing at and I just told him "it's just this whole situation" and right then the drunk chick noticed there was a cop 10 feet from where she was squating in a bush so she stood up, smiled at me, then pulled up he panties and walked off. True story.

I lied to the FBI once, I denied knowledge of the whereabouts of stolen vehicles. I also participated in the distillation of bootleg liquor and in the manufacture of explosive devices. All before the age of 12. Dang, family is sure a lot of trouble.

Uhm, I find it a little unsettling that nobody seemed to get my joke about the indecent exposure business.

You did?

Only arrested once, for my final shoplifting experience. I had been slicker than sh*t for a while, and got away with probably a thousand dollars worth of small goods (books, CDs, etc.) I got nailed trying to lift a Beatles CD, was arrested, had to go to court. In the end my case was ACOD (adjourned, contemplation of dismissal) after I attended a STOPLIFT class and kept my nose clean for 6 months. I was mid-20s at the time, so it wasn't a juvie bust. I was concerned I'd lose my job at a federal research lab if they found out, but they didn't.

The most interesting part was that I managed to fit in 3 court appearances and an all-day Saturday STOPLIFT class without my family, friends, girlfriend (we lived togather at the time) or employers being any the wiser. Almost got busted by the gf, because the Saturday I had to attend the class (or potentially go to jail) I told her I had to work, and she wanted to come into work with me because she didn't want to stay at home by herself (we only had 1 car at the time), but she changed her mind at the last moment. I have weird and wonderful luck, not the lottery-winning kind, but the escape-by-the-skin-of-my-teeth kind (which is better, I think.)

Well if you had won the lottery you had no incentive to do certain things.

Yeah, probably.

Then there are people who break the law for the excitement.
