    I love this story.

    "It's something you see in the movies.... They dug a 200m tunnel that goes underneath two (city) blocks. They've been digging for three months," police investigator Francisco Queiroga told Reuters.

    I´m taking bets on how long it will take to get the movie into cinemas near you.

    Hey I am back from Brasil, what a trip. Seems like I always end up just digging around when I am there... My arms are so sore, next they will be bigger than my head.

    Anyone need a loan?

    I heard on ABC News that there were cameras, but that they were down...

    I like movies about heists, and true stories are only better when they involve technical stuff.

    Nope, just getting the experience under my belt to visit fort knox. But obviously as you can see, brasil was not challenging enough. Our inside guy almost messed it up, since the cameras where suppose to be working, just srambled so it wasn't obvious we had an inside guy. All is well, he is wearing cement boots now.

    It already was a movie - the Ladykillers. In the 60's with Alec Guiness and then Tom Hanks not too long ago.

    Yes, but where are they now? Oh, I hope the folk whose money was half-inched are covered by insurance but at the same time I hope these guys are never caught. They didn´t kill anyone and what do you think they are doing now? -I hope they get a cut from the inevitable movie.
