The simplest strategy would have been to have already moved to a non-extradition country. He'd already racked up tens of millions of dollars in profits! What was he waiting for?

Another good strategy would be to just stop doing it. Taking a big risk when you don't have money is much different from taking it when you do. He had enough to be comfortable for the rest for his life. Why risk that? You've already won whatever game you think you're playing.

No doubt one or two of these can still be heard somewhere, but off the top of my head and in no particular order, these are sounds I can remember from my youth:
  1. The rotary dialing of a telephone
  2. The bell on a cash register
  3. "old style" police sirens
  4. A baseball card in the spokes of a bicycle
  5. The clunk-clunk-clunk of a mechanical TV tuner
  6. Tubes warming up
  7. The unmistakable clinking of glass milk bottles being delivered
  8. The "time at the tone" recording
