Favorite story update

I just found this update from the world's favorite bank robbers (excluding Ronnie Biggs of course).

http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2009/08/26/2667264.htm

Interesting that the bank teller has now been fired after a second mistake. I guess they won't ever really be able to justify the 'attention to detail' component on their future job applications...

Favorite story of the year nomination #1

The NZ couple who, when a Westpac bank error gave them $100,000 instead of $10,000, put their gas station into recievership and ran for the hills.

Interpol is chasing them - last I heard they were in China/Korea. I can smell a movie deal already!!!
