Next time...they should disguise the catalytic converter in a bun, slathered with mustard, chili and onions.

Now I’m hungry.

If somebody was crawling under a wiener, should we ask where the vice-president was?

I got to drive one back in the late 80’s at a golf resort I was working at. Just around the parking lot, but still a blast.

Some thieves have no respect. I’ll bet they would steal a catalytic converter off a convent van.

Why not prohibit scrap metal yards from buying catalytic converters, that’s whose buying them. Im pretty sure that would stop a lot of the thefts.

California has a new law:

AB 1740 requires anyone who accepts a catalytic converter to keep a record of all information about the transaction; including payment method, VIN, a copy of the vehicle’s title, and the make and model of the vehicle.

The competition to join one of the Wienermobile’s rotating crews is fierce.

Waiting for the CA Democrats to decry the new law as "raay-cist" in 3-2-1...
