It's just that the answer to the question is quite obvious and I'm glad somebody made a little humor out of it.

You mean the wheel lock?? Those things are really easy to take off...you can DIY or take it to Sears. You just need a wheel lock remover kit or a cheap socket. hammer the socket onto the wheel lock until it has a grip, and then remove the lug as you normally would. To get the lock out of the socket, just lie it on the ground and hammer the side of it. You can buy a whole new set of wheel locks and a key for around 20 bucks.
