Toronto police announced in February that they had arrested the man who had stolen a backhoe with the intention of driving it to a car wash in order to break down a wall and get at the facility's coin machine. The call to police came from a snow plow that was hot on the backhoe's heels, with the driver having diverted from his route to chase the thief. [Toronto Star] Do you think someone forgot to take their medicine

A backhoe was stolen in order to knock down a wall at a car wash to get at the coin machine? I would say that they either forgot to take their meds or they need to set their goals a little higher. I mean come on. How much money did they really think they were going to get?

Yeah, but which one? Oh goodness me. If you are going to be so drastic, why not at least hit up a bank? Not a sneaky ninja here.
