I was nearly asleep while catching the last of the news last night (we have
had some bad weather here and I wanted to know what to expect for later
this week) when I was forced straight up in my chair.

It seems the police were alerted to look for 8 women in the south Seattle
area who had rented ELECTRIC BREAST PUMPS from a particular distribution
site (It sounded like a rental station to me though I was not familiar with
the name) and had failed to return it.  With incredulity dripping from her
voice, the newscaster finsihed with, "and each of those machines is worth
more than $1100!"  (Clearly she could not believe that!)

I imagined the 8 women, on hearing that broadcast, snatching up the pumps
and delivering them to the store site under cloak of darkness!  (Wonder
what really happened....)  :-)
