Lists are helpful. Don’t lose them ☺

In 1996 two escaped prisoners from Marble Valley, Vermont, were forced to abandon a stolen car when a police officer approached them. Inside was a very helpful list the forgetful fugitives wrote to help them remember what to do:

• Drive to Maine
• Get a safer place to stay
• Buy guns
• Get Marie
• Get car
  …
• Do robbery
• Go to New York

The prisoners were later picked up in Manhattan getting off a Maine-to-New-York bus.
