Did you hear the good news? Norwegian police report that the stolen Edvard Munch masterpieces "The Scream" and "Madonna" have been found.


That's right, two years after gunmen heisted them in a daring daylight raid from an Oslo museum, they're headed back to the museum... no doubt, under very heavy armed guard.


I was happy to hear this, not only because I always had a morbid interest in "The Scream," but an even bigger interest in why anyone would steal famous artwork.
