I got burgled about 6 years ago and the thieves tore
the place apart and made off with about $300 worth
of stuff.  They took my 10 year old broken TV and a 
one gallon jar of pennies, but they left behind my 
$2500 computer and my wife's $3300 computer.

What ever happened to those smart cat-burglars
they show on the TV shows?  Did those ever exist
or was that an urban legend?
