Ridiculous Item of the Day: Woman Robs Banks While Talking on the Phone

A young woman robbed four banks in Washington's suburbs without ever interrupting conversations [on] her cell phone, a sheriff's spokesman said on Friday.

In the most recent heist, the woman, with sunglasses casually pushed up on her dark hair and a mobile phone at her ear, walked up to a bank teller in Ashburn, Virginia, on November 4 and opened her purse to show a handgun and a note demanding cash, said Loudoun County sheriff's spokesman Kraig Troxell.

'During the entire sequence, she was on her cell phone,' Troxell said by telephone. 'When we compared it with other robberies that have occurred in the area, we determined she was involved in three other robberies. ... In those cases, she was also on the cell phone.'"

Possible interpretations:
A. This proves that women talk on the phone way too much.
B. This proves that men need to pay better attention to women...
...they obviously know what they're doing.
C. Women are much better multi-taskers.
D. The woman isn't that good at robbing a bank...
...she had to be given step-by-step instructions via phone while doing it.
What do you think?

Full story here.

Haha, that's hilarious...well, I'm pretty sure she was doing it on purpose so as to look normal and unsuspecting. But, still, that's funny.

Geez! People these days just have no courtesy with their cell phones. They won't hang up when they go to a restaurant, they won't turn the ringer off in church or the theater, and now they won't even have the common decency to turn it off to commit grand larceny. What is this world coming to?
