Tuesday Word Game 7/1/2008

It's Tuesday again and time for word game! Today's word game comes to us via a suggestion by our good friend Leighann. Apparently we share the same taste in odd news stories because I love this one as well. This story is about a kidnapping. What is odd about that you may ask? This kidnapper grabbed his ex not for money or to kill her but to bring her back to his place to iron his clothes. Give this article a read .
This is a pretty odd reason to kidnap someone for sure but I bet we could come up with a few more. Complete the news article below with a funny or strange reason that someone may kidnap someone else:

ROME (Reuters) - An Italian man was arrested on suspicion of kidnapping his ex-girlfriend from a pub, taking her home and forcing her to iron his clothes and wash the dishes, police said Monday.
The 43-year-old man dragged the woman out of a pub in the port city of Genoa, shoved her into a car and took her to his home where he made her iron and wash dishes after threatening her, they said.
Police arrived at his house after being tipped off by a friend of the woman who watched the scene at the pub.
The man, who was apparently furious at his ex-girlfriend for leaving him, was arrested on charges of kidnapping, police said.


Police say that other kidnappings have been for ______________________ .

Answer as often as you like in the comments and of course the best answer wins a peach tomorrow morning. Thanks for playing.
