A thief in Paris planned to steal some paintings from the Louvre. 

 
After careful planning, he got past security, stole the paintings and made it safely to his van.

However, he was captured only two blocks away when his van ran out of gas.

When  asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make  such an obvious error, he replied, 'Monsieur, that is  the reason I stole the  paintings..'
 
I had no Monet 
 
 To buy Degas
   
 To make the Van Gogh.'   
   
 See if you have De Gaulle to send  this on to someone  else.
   
 I sent it to you because I  figured I had nothing Toulouse
