Don't Put All Your Eggs in One Basket.

People like you and me, ordinary people I'm talking about, simply have to roll our eyes in disbelief.
This morning in Germany, the custodians of a Berlin museum clocked in for work and found that their prize exhibition had disappeared.
This centrepiece of their display happened to be a 220 lb gold coin, made in Canada, stamped with the queen's head and worth a cool  $4,000,000:00.
The most expensive (and heaviest) coin in the world had just vanished overnight.
How did it happen? Had the bad fairies been at work? Probably not, for a ladder was found outside the museum wall, a possible clue that it was not the German Trolls that had done the heist but more earthly figures.
What is more troubling to the museum authorities is how their prize display could have been stolen, when there was an array of laser beams, alarms and fail safe devices guarding the golden coin.
No doubt the mystery will be soon explained but, in the meantime, remember the age old words of Jesus:
"Store not up your treasure on earth where moth or rust decays and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up treasure in Heaven where your reward shall be eternal."
220lbs weight in gold! However did they get it out of the back window?

Jubilate
