Thievery Abounds!

  
  Tuesday we learned of a diamond heist at Brussels Airport - right off the tarmac. The thieves wore uniforms - Willie Sutton would have been proud. Wednesday it was six goats stolen from a farm in rural Pennsylvania. Now I can see the attraction of the "ice" but what of the goats? Were they after the goathair or the milk for cheese - (I happen to like goat cheese with honey) or perhaps it was some disgruntled Cubs fans attempting to "reverse the curse" at Wrigley Field? In another lifetime I made periodic visits to rural Pennsylvania - in Lancaster County the Amish folks have those black buggies with the orange triangle on the rear. You have to be attentive to their presence on the highway. And now if motoring thru that country you also have to watch out for the goats grazing by the roadside. As Stan Laurel used to say "If it isn't one thing it's another, Ollie."
