ShortFormBlog: Picasso drawing nabbed from gallery

shortformblog:

HEIST! A 1965 Pablo Picasso drawing valued at over $200,000 was successfully stolen earlier today from a San Francisco art gallery. It was a sophisticated heist that included eleven individuals, a remote-controlled car, a decoy video feed and several impostor cops. Hah, just kidding, that was…

I just read this and had to look at the Picasso wikipedia entry. I have this problem where I think that certain people were alive way earlier in history than they actually were. Picasso died in 1973. Who fucking knew?! I would have guessed some time in the 1800’s. This happens far more often than I feel comfortable admitting.
