      Aye, the "burglar joke" reports go back at least four years: http://wtfjournal.com/[^] - so there is a good chance it's a repost.

          That's a very definite statement, especially given the notorious quality of the search tool here...

              It's been here 1hr 10mins and NOBODY has managed to post a Repost link. Trust me, this proves beyond reasonable doubt, it is not a repost.

                  All it proves is that no one has looked or found. I do recall seeing this story before but I can't [a] remember where or [b] be bothered to look.

                      That is not a viable scenario when it has been mooted that there is a possibility of a repost. Trust me people have searched.

                            That's belief, not proof. Faith, not rigour. Religion, not science.

                                I'm at work. I don't don my Leslie Nielsen cap until I get home. Edit: OK, I don't recall that one. Move along, move along...

                                You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.
