Last night, watching the new news communication tool for visual and verbal meanings: the nightly television news broodcast, the first image that came up was a bank robbery with the criminal wearing a dress with underwear over his head (they guessed that it was a male since that was the voice they heard). He was shown robbing the bank because the six or seven other bank robberies were not as bizarre in what they wore to pull off the heist. The second piece of news was a drunk who stold a forklift and had five police cars slowly following him down a major highway until he pulled over and was jailed.
