Who Sits Around Thinking of This Stuff??

Email forwards....who writes these things?
Is it a bunch of people?
Or is it just one frustrated writer?
I usually don't read them and I never forward them, 
but this one made me smile.


*********************************************************************

A thief in Paris planned to steal some paintings from the Louvre. 

After careful planning he got past security, stole the paintings and made it safely to his van. However he was captured only two blocks away when his van ran out of gas. When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error, he replied, "Monsieur, that is the reason I stole the paintings...."

"I had no Monet

To buy Degas


 To make the Van Gogh!"


See if you have the DeGaulle to send this on to someone else. 

I sent it to you because I figured I had nothing Toulouse.

    Very cute. I'm glad you posted it. It's a great way to Escher in the changing Cézanne. Or as Doris Degas might sing "Que Seurat, Seurat."

    Very cute and now I want to go to Paris! I have wanted to do an etsy shop for about four years now. I just love to make things. It's the shipping charges and making sure everything arrives okay that concerns me.

    Ah yes, this one was very, very funny, and it is true, who sits around and is so bored silly that she/he comes up with this?;))
    But I truly enjoyed the play on words here, how clever.;)
    Have a great Friday,
