Thanks for the tip. I plan to take up bank robbery, with special emphasis on safe deposit boxes. Am currently searching the Internet for an inexpensive workshop on technique.

Michael...safe, safe deposit boxes.
I have a friend in FL who knew some shady characters (actually some of his old university friends) that busted into a safety deposit vault. Bank was backed up to a railroad. They set up a compressor with jack hammers in the back on a Saturday. As trains went by, they hammered. Got in Saturday night. Spent that night & a good portion of Sunday busting boxes, drinking beer and having a good old time. They only took paper and metal, no jewelry. Box holders were claiming they'd lost $mil's in jewelry, rare stamps, etc. Thing is, the guys took nothing they'd have to pawn.
Epilog; about 4 years ago I was talking to my step-mother and she told me one of her monied friends lost a fortune from the two safety deposit boxes she had in a bank. And the robbers must have had a party in there because there was beer cans, food and trash all over the vault!

Headed up to the Yukon tomorrow, have a healthy, prosperous summer.
