The Painting Thief
Recently a guy in Paris nearly got away with stealing several paintings from
the Louvre. However, after planning the crime, breaking in, evading
security, getting out and escaping with the goods, he was captured only two
blocks away when his Econoline van ran out of gas. When asked how he could
mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error, he replied:
"I had no Monet to buy Degas to make the Van Gogh."
