722...Bank Robbery 101

Sarah Palin and I read the same paper, The Anchorage Daily News don't you know, and last week they ran a nice little story about a fellow who obviously flunked out of bank robber academy but decided it was his calling anyhow.

It were not.

Jared Paul Arnold, who is 34 and should know better, walked into the Alaska USA Federal Credit Union on Juneau Street in Anchorage, Alaska. So far so good. He then gave his name and account number to the teller and showed his picture ID. It was his real name and it was his own account. Still doing good Mr. Arnold, still good. He asked the teller, Letecia Chroust, to check his balance. Good. Then he handed over a note that read "I have a gun. Give me all the money in your drawer." Not so good.

He remains in custody at the Anchorage jail.
