Sounds like a plan!

Reuters.com occasionally provides me with some rather 

cute stories. The latest one that caught my eye was titled 

"Jail break timed with guard toilet break."! Naturally, I 

could not resist. In Manilla, capital of the Philippines, 

7 men escaped from a police station detention cell by 

sawing on the bars (albeit very old, rusty bars) of the cell 

they were in. They were able to time their sawing with the

numerous bathroom visits the lone guard took that evening; 

the guard was nursing an upset stomach and had to make 

several toilet pit stops. It wasn't until several hours later 

that the guard noticed the damaged cell and the missing 

prisoners. What made it worse is that of the 7 escapees, 2 

were being held on murder charges (the other 5 for theft 

and robbery). Needless to say, the guard was suspended, 

as was his commanding officer. I suppose the possible loss 

of work will really make the poor guy's stomach churn!
