What about when Klaus stole Henrick's wienerschnitzel? That was a pretty big scandal.

/nothin

Theank God for The Local.de. We are so tired of reading idiot tales from the US/UK/Australia because we are lazy monolingual douches. There are rich seams of stupidity to be mined in German, French, Spanish-speaking countries too.

having your cake and eating it too? i think not

They ate the cake because being nihilist is exhausting, not to mention hunger inducing.

There was a lie about the cake.

/had to be done

They call this delicious pastry "Stollen" - what do they expect will happen to it?

The fools... everyone knows you're not supposed to eat Christmas cake. You keep it a year then send it to someone else.

It's made of foam rubber and plastic.

Right?

The prosecuting attorney heading the investigation said something like:
"Never before did we need so much manpower to investigate the theft of a Christmas cake."


Though I have to admit that I don't quite understand what the switching of the package labels was supposed to accomplish (hide) - wouldn't there still be one package missing?

DNRA due to headline posted after the first paragraph:

Dead Polish man found in back seat by border police.

Doesn't being in the back seat with the dead guy make it easy for border patrol agents to find him?
Just wondering.

Damn you, Jal-co-za ! I came to do a stolen stollen joke.

/hmph
//magnificent bastard

The mystery began in early December when two sub-contractors for a package delivery company pinched a "Stollen," the traditional German cake, that a company in Stuttgart wanted to send to Uwe Vorkötter, editor-in-chief of the Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper.

They pinched a loaf?

A one-L stolen is a take
a two-L Stollen is a bake
But I will bet a Guatemalan
There isn't any three-L stolllen

Why the hell would they pull a switch? Who'd have noticed a missing cake, or, if they did, care?

Right?

American and British ones yes. However, Stollen is actually pretty good. Marzipan Stollen particularly.

Isn't it funny how much money, time, and effort that businesses spend on securing their data, and yet something completely asinine like this can still occur.

It must have been damned fine cake!

Stollen stolen.



-1 Subby.

"The uproar over another suspected case of stolen personal data was resolved Friday when police determined it was in fact the result of a hijacked Christmas cake."

No..., it was the result of them mailing sensitive data unencrypted.

They ate a Christmas cake?

Leave them be! They've suffered enough!

Wanted for questioning.

/Really? I was the first to think of this?

Fark Me To Tears

I rather think this case is showing that the bank didn't spend much money/time/effort for security.
Instead of encrypting highly confidential data for the transport or hiring a messenger or cash-in-transit service (it's not like banks never have to transport money..) that specializes in shipping valuable goods, they just dumped the plain text data into the regular mail.

Yes and please be the only one.

/Sorry, nothing personal to you. I just hate that guy.
