Some years ago, I shared a house with friends. One of the friends played piano, and there were two upright pianos in the house, and a grand piano harp sitting on the porch.

We all went away for a weekend. When we came back, we discovered that the harp was gone from the porch. We were nonplussed. A grand piano harp weighs about 300lbs. Stealing one would require about four strong guys and a pickup truck. But once you had stolen it, what would you do with it? It's not the sort of thing you can fence to buy drugs.

We couldn't think of any reason for the theft beyond "because they could."
