It was stolen about ten years ago, thanks to its celebrity-like status, its hard to sell.

#206707

Wow, I didnt know the rest of the world knew about this. I thought us norwegians were the only one!

Btw, Madonna was stolen too :)

Make your own art, dont steal it.

Sorry I don't speak russian.

There was a russian woman in an american SciFi book by Frederik Pohl called

'Return from Gateway' or so, who used to call her husband a 'nekulturny',

whenever he revealed the fact that he didn't appreciate art, music or

culture in general. Either you don't know it because its purely fictional,

its out of date, or you are one :)

a newspaper here in vancouver canada said it best: The guard didn't have time to scream because a gun was pointed at him.

the guard probably made that face too when the thieves left. lol

it's an inside job, i think. the guard was in on it

Ehm, that's a bit harsh, but as a self declared 08/15 *), you should be more like

it...

*)

A book about a German Landser (kinda GI) during WW2 by Kirst, now widely

known as a pejorative of averageness and comonness in german.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

a book? i thought, it's been the standard-gun in WW1 ?

nevertheless, i want to mention, that i chose the nickname cause of the "other sense", herd mentioned. (being standard, nothing special about, ...) and didn't know about other meanings, when i used it the first time.

well, enough offtopic from me.

---------------------------

did you hear, that there were no assurance for the paintures, cause they would have been too expensive for the museum ?
