   Two would-be robbers   
   18 Jul 17 16:34:43   
   
   From: usteen@asdf.fi   
      
   Here's the background:   
   An accidental phone call to emergency services in Danville, Kentucky,   
   meant that dispatchers learned the details in real time as Robert   
   Bourne and David Grigsby discussed their plans to rob a barbecue   
   restaurant.   
     Inside Mike Sutherland's busy eatery, police chief Tony Gray   
   soon pushed back his chair and entered the car park, where the two   
   would-be robbers were sitting in a vehicle.  The men were arrested   
   only for public intoxication - Gray doesn't believe they had any real   
   plans to go through with their plans.  Nonetheless, Sutherland has   
   made clear that Bourne and Grigsby are now _former_ regulars at his   
   establishment.   
      
   Here are the anagrams (I'm not sure which works best):   
      
     Robert Bourne & David Grigsby =   
     Bad urges: driving to 'robbery'   
   or   
     An absurd robbery...  Do get driving!   
      
     Robert Bourne and David Grigsby =   
     Graded 'Absrd Robbery' in voting   
      
   And, on his own,   
     Robert Bourne = No robber, true.
