The Louvre Robbery

[AndyD]

A special mechanical extending ladder(bit like the fire brigade or removal firms use), and disc cutters for the glass.

France's Crown jewels are probably in Eastern Europe by now. And probably in numerous pieces.

Off with their heads.

[Tom-K]

The French are idiots. Really. They deserve what they get.

[Horace]

Chaud take!

Just heard something about the crime on NPR. Apparently they left a wealth of evidence and there were three of them. They anticipate capture very soon.

Didn’t think it would take long.

5 more arrested, for a total of 7. Jewels still not recovered.

AI says 25 years is the most they could get.

Trading 25 years for unimaginable wealth? Not at this point, thanks.

People with government jobs have to trade 30.

The Paris prosecutor is offering reduced sentences if they bring back the jewels. Makes sense.

25 years in Prison or a reduced sentence where I come out poor and dead within 3 months? No thanks…..

[Mik]

Well, your poor little glas is half empty today, isn’t it?

My daughter just sent us a video they did at work. The project managers were Louvre robbers (hardhats and visibility vests) and another one was Princess Diana. They stole her jewels. It was hilariously choreographed. I’ll post it if I can figure out how to

I guess the British Museum stole all the good passwords decades ago.

What did they use? "FishNChips"?

Don't be ridiculous. There's nothing British in the British museum.

[Mik]

Fair point.
