Aw, lookie here — a happy ending! That suddenly popular Chris Ogle — you know, the New Zealander who accidentally purchased an MP3 player full of classified US Army documents from a thrift store — is basking in the glory of his 14th minute of fame. According to a new report from Reuters, Mr. Ogle peacefully handed the device back over to US authorities, and for his cooperation, a brand spanking new player was handed over to him. It’s unclear what kind of unit he received and if it was your tax money paying for it, but we get the feeling we’ll never truly know answers to either question. As for Ogle’s next move? We hear he’s jockeying for a guest spot on Flight of the Conchords.
