First time caller, long time dummy

In today's wacky news:


CHICAGO (AP) - Federal officials say they have finally solved a bank robbery because a suspect bragged about the crime on a radio talk show.

A caller boasted on WKSC-FM that he and five others tied up employees at a TCF Bank branch in South Chicago Heights in April, took $81,000 and spent some of the money at expensive stores...

...The FBI says Washington denies any involvement in the robbery, claiming he called the radio station to win a prize.

WKSC's format came in a big cardboard box stamped only with the block-printed word "TOP40". Compare their picture page with that from the L.A. station that also calls itself KISS. "Free Gas, Full Service Friday at Citgo in Bensenville" vs. "Free Gas Friday with JoJo".
