While the notion of armed and dangerous criminals escaping from jail bothers me, I have to love the sheer cheek of it too. In a Shawshank Redemption-esque escape made by chipping a hole in the wall and covering it up with posters of scantily clad women is frankly something people can’t say nobody ever could conceive of happing. It is a plot point in a major motion picture picture, so you would have thought someone would have been looking occasionally. Of course everyone claimed that no one could conceive of using a airliner as a weapon by crashing it into a building either before it happened, yet it too was on the television show, The Lone Gunmen. I wonder if it would be best if we get rid of the so called security professionals and hire the likes of Chris Carter and Stephen King to brainstorm outside the box. Escaping was one thing for this pair of criminals, who thankfully aren’t anywhere near my family. Sorry for the luck of those who live in that area. The pair however didn’t just stop at escaping, they wrote a note wishing their jailers “Happy Holidays!” While the escape is serious and people are possibly in jeopardy, the note is still damned hilarious.
