Just for fun

Stephen Auslender, sculptor wrote this to the Yahoo group "Art Anonymous" I have a soft spot for humor than makes you groan, so here goes:

A thief in Paris planned to steal some paintings from the Louvre.
After careful planning, he got past security, stole the paintings, and made it safely to his van.However, he was captured only two blocks away when his van ran out of gas.
When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such anobvious error, he replied, "Monsieur, that is the reason I stole thepaintings.
'I had no Monet
to buy Degas
to make the Van Gogh."

Then he asked if I had De Gaulle to send this on to someone else. I posted it because I figured I had nothing Toulouse.
