Scream Stolen

I thought robberies like this only happened in worlds with superheroes. I mean, I know theft and armed robbery does occur, but this... it seems so... anachronistic, y'know?

I thought it was interesting that this happened now... only shortly after I saw a documentation about exactly that painting on Dutch tv.

And it's kind of comforting that other countries' security measures in museums suck too. :-P (Not too long ago a golden salt shaker was stolen from a museum in Vienna - the thieves could easily get in through a window since there was convenient scaffolding right in front of it.)

Okay, I just realized that "golden salt shaker" sounds really weird, since it's not really something you can shake. It's just a very fancy thingie which was used for storing salt. Piccie
