The thieves may be attracted to Tide's value as a motivation for the theft, but even more attractive is the fact that they can make a clean get away!

Let's try to write a song/poem about this???

Any takers?

First the tide rushes in
Plants a kiss on the chore
Then folds out to the tee
And the tee is very stiff once more
So I rush to give you a ride
To get or steal more tide
It is here by your side

With one burning thought
How do you get more tide
Will your arms open wide
While I am still by your side

At last we're at the place
Where we can wash off
the kiss from our last embrace

I can tell, I can feel
You fit like a glove
And can get out meals
Really work well after the rain
In the dark, in the sun
Like the tide in the tub
You do not even have to rub
I'm at peace in the web of your suds

Modifying the 1953 song "Ebb Tide" by the lyricist Carl Sigman and composer Robert Maxwell.

Still a bizarre story! Hope it doesn't raise the price on Tide, it's the only brand I use! Go figure!

There was a young man named Ray,
who stole tons of Tide one fine day.
His loot all got bought,
and he never got caught.
And he lives quite a clean life today!

The orange box Oh so pretty,
The contents so so gritty,
Bad stains they cause so much grief,
But not in the eyes of the thief.
For the suds he doesn't much care, not with narcotics out there.
I'll trade my detergent for crack,.... reefer, pills or smack.
I've let go... all my pride,...so I can steal all of your Tide.


THERE, That was really, really bad... I can't believe I humiliated myself just because you asked.....

Ah yes. Investing in Proctor and Gamble was a good idea!

but I read this thread thinking it would be a "dirty" joke....

Ah, I think we got all the makings of a Broadway production called "Tide, The Musical!" Anyone got a suggestion for which Broadway Theatre it should open in?
