Tormod Posted August 22, 2004 Report Posted August 22, 2004 Nobody said I live in a boring city but things are getting a bit out of hand... CNN: Armed robbers steal 'The Scream'http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/europe/08/22/scream.theft/index.html BBC: Scream stolen from Norway museumhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/3588282.stm And don't miss this gem: Munch's agonising masterpiecehttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/3588432.stm("It wouldn't be the end of the world if it disappeared" - Brian Sewell. Cool comment.) I used to live a few blocks away from the Munch museum. Great place. Now two attractions shorter, obviously. Quote
Veritas Posted September 4, 2004 Report Posted September 4, 2004 The thing is, those paintings are priceless and irreplacable. Thieves would never get their money's worth selling them, so what will they do? decorate their houses with them? Put them on display? Quote
Tormod Posted September 5, 2004 Author Report Posted September 5, 2004 It must have been a commission theft, I think. Quote

Tormod Posted September 5, 2004 Author Report Posted September 5, 2004 No problem, I tipped off the Norwegian police, they said they'd give you a call first thing in the morning. Wonder what I'll spend that $1,000,000 reward on... Quote
