We live in a crazy country. The Associated Press carried a story recently about a woman who tried to hold up a bank. Her weapon? A device that she said controlled a bomb in her car. Brandishing her innovative weapon, the woman demanded money from 3 tellers at a branch bank in Bowling Green, Ohio. Suddenly the tellers realized that the device she was waving in their faces was not a remote control for a bomb at all. It was only a garagedoor opener. "I think their first clue was when they saw `Sears' on the end of the garagedoor opener," said Police Chief Galen Ash. After the tellers realized what her "weapon" was, they forced her to the floor and sat on her until police arrived. The woman was charged with unarmed bank robbery.
