Yahoo! News - Teen Arrested for Taking Acropolis Marble
I didn't know you could get arrested for this:
A Canadian teenager has been arrested on suspicion of taking a piece of marble from the Athens Acropolis, site of the 2,500-year-old Parthenon temple, police said Tuesday.
I wonder how many zillions of people have taken tiny pieces of the Acropolis with them when they left. I'm not proud of it, but I couldn't resist the temptation. I'm usually pretty conscientious about that sort of thing, but there's something about that place that causes the urge to be especially strong.
It sucks to be made an example of, and I'm no Oracle but I predict that girl is going to have one shitty vacation.
