Armed men stormed into an Oslo art museum Sunday and stole Munch's The Scream, one of the most famous paintings in the world. Believe me, this was a ticking time bomb. I lived in Oslo for years, and I was always aghast at the total lack of security in the museums. There is another version of the Scream in the National Gallery, and I think I could have taken that one off the wall and handed it out a window to an accomplice! I would mention this to Norwegians, and they thought I was nuts. Welcome to the real world, my innocent Viking friends.
