Napped in the Closet II

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007 • Filed under Uncategorized

In the words of our illustrious president (who by the way commenters we have the utmost respect for, even if he has the oratory skills of Yogi Berra being beaten repeatedly in the face), “Fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.”

It happened again. According to the Associated Press, a burglary in Bosnia got caught because he took a nap at the scene of the crime.

He apparently broke into the house, got his hands on some jewelry, took one look at the couch and fell right to sleep. The owner came home and found him napping and called the police. Reportedly, the homeowner’s porridge had been eaten and their chairs had been sat in before the burglar fell asleep in the couch that was “just right.”

If this story sounds familiar, don’t worry. You’re not stuck in a time wrap. According to the Associated Press, a man in Akron broke into his ex-girlfriend’s house, fell asleep and was caught by the girlfriend who called police. It made for the weirdest episode of “Blind Date” I’ve ever seen.
