Have you ever stolen something?

On this day in 1911, the Mona Lisa was stolen from the Louvre Museum and not recovered until 1913.  I ask you…how in the hell did that happen???  No alarms back then, but no security either?

Have you ever stolen something?  If so, did you get away with it?

    About three weeks ago I walked out of Barnes and Noble forgetting to put one of the books back. 50 steps out the door I realized it. When I returned to the store to put it back no one was there waiting to arrest me. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so unimportant in my life.

    I was a terrible kleptomaniac in my early teens. Thankfully getting caught a couple of times cured me of this very bad habit.

    Nope. Not unless you count eating some jelly beans out of the bin at the candy store. And I have been known to borrow things from my siblings without them knowing (shoes, books, tools…etc), but I do return them when I’m done so I don’t think that counts either.

    When I was a kid, we went to the circus in Kiev, U.S.S.R. The M.C. was greeting everyone at the door. Once the act started, he started pulling things out of his pockets, including my dad’s watch!

    There was a great li’l coffee shop in the West Village, NYC, and this homeless guy I’d seen frequently on the street walked in to use the bathroom. As he walked out, he was speaking loudly and waving one hand up in the air. Shortly thereafter the waitress, who was my major reason for being there, got really upset. Turned out the guy had stolen her tip jar, and the waving hand and loud talk had been a diversion to distract us from his other hand with the tips in it. Worst part was when I went in to use an ATM on my birthday, and this same homeless guy was at the door spare changing me telling me it was HIS birthday. Dat ain’t right, I tell ya. (Did you notice I didn’t answer the question?)
