I'll admit I'm exhausted, and sometimes, when I'm tired, things that aren't that funny seem hilarious to me. But I think this article about a stolen painting would be funny even if I were awake. (More like The Simpsons than The NY Times!!)

Thomas Antenen, the spokesman for the Department of Corrections, said . . . . "It looks like the painting has been replaced by a copy. That appears to be the case based on a consensus of nonexpert opinion, people who work near the painting and see it day in and day out."

The panel that produced the "consensus of nonexpert opinion" would be three correction officers and a Rikers warden, David Goodman.
