Yes, that's right. I've decided my life is too boring, so I'm going over to the dark side to become a mastermind criminal. I'm sure I can talk about it openly in here because law enforcement never goes online to read stuff.

Here's my first hit. I bought one of those beginner cheapy Squire Stratocaster electric guitars. I'm now busy modifying it to look like Jimi Hendrix's 1968 Strat that he played at Woodstock, and which is now on display in a museum in Seattle. That Strat is white, but my Squire beginner Strat is black with a white pick guard. No biggie. I've got some white spray paint to change that. Next, of course, I'm flipping this baby over, changing the nut to a left-handed one, and am stringing it up left-handed. By the time I'm done, no one will be able to tell the difference. Gonna get a job working in that museum, and I'll swap'em out. Then I'm selling the original to a rich collector for something like 20 million bucks. Big bucks coming my way!

All right, here's my next hit, and this one is even more ambitious. I got a paint-by-numbers kit of the Mona Lisa. I'm busy working on it to make it turn out exactly like the original. Then I'll take it to Paris and swap it out for the real thing at The Louve. I'm not sure how much a discerning wealthy and crooked collector would pay for the real Mona Lisa, but it's gotta be big bucks. Yeah, baby, gonna get rich of of my mastermind plots.

Yep, I'm turning into a super crook, and a millionaire one at that! I've got one final con up my sleeve. Last Halloween, I bought a plastic skeleton on a bargain closeout. I also bought a 1930s-era woman's flight suit dirt cheap. I've roughed up that flight suit really great by throwing it, and a bunch of sand, rocks, and dirt into my clothes dryer. So I'm taking this stuff Nikumaroro Island to set up the archaeological find of the 21st century. I'm setting up Amelia Earharts camp site on Nikumaroro Island, where she supposedly landed when lost and lived until she croaked. I'll start with Youtube videos about it, and then eventually charge admission to tourists who want to see it.

I'm a mastermind criminal! Yeppers, gonna do these cons and make megabucks. I'll let y'all know how it goes down. Btw, please don't tell the cops.

This should be your first job, break into Sotheby's(Mission Impossible style) and steal Eddie Van Halen's guitar. Better hurry bids close tomorrow as does the window of opportunity.

Eddie Van Halen's Hot for Teacher Kramer is going up for auction​

Put up for sale by Sotheby's, the guitar has an eye-watering minimum bid of $1,800,000, and is valued overall at between 2 and 3 million dollars. If the guitar does end up selling for anywhere within that range, it would easily become one of the 10 most expensive guitars ever sold at auction.

I am guessing you are too old to go to the darkside side to be a criminal mass shooter.

The recent guy was 33, which i found interesting. I looked it up on the rockefeller gov statistics and the average age of mass shooters is 33.2 years old
