"Hey, I'm back!" the Madonna Screamed

Actually, this was not a reference to myself.
Rather, it refers to the fact that yesterday, the two paintings "Madonna" and "Scream" by E. Munch that were stolen two years ago in a daring raid, were found again with only minor damages, according to the experts.

The police was tipped off by the high profile bank robber David Toska, who by this action hopes to get a more lenient treatment in jail.
Since, however, it was most probably D.T. himself who ordered the robbery of the paintings in order to divert the police's resources from focusing on his own gang's bank robbery (in which the policeman Arve Sigvart Klungland was killed in a shoot-out before the robbers escaped), few Norwegians think he ought to get off any lighter.

Anyhow, that is what's happening over here right now..:smile:
(Besides, I've been told that I resemble D.T. somewhat..:frown: )
