Just a reminder to people about leaving items in their car. I was at practice tonight, and very stupidly left my wallet and iphone in the console. This was in a friends driveway, in a well lit area, so I did not think Id have much to worry about. They smashed the window and grabbed the phone and wallet.... Boy do I hate thieves.

yeah, it was a pretty stupid move on my part leaving that shit out, and since they have my wallet with my address Ive got myself all freaked out even more that they may try to come here... |

I feel for you Glocke. I’ve had something similar happen to me, except my wallet was in my gym bag in my office. I have a corner office with only one door in or out. Someone took my wallet right out of my gym bag. I had to cancel my credit card, my debit card, cancel check numbers, get a new DL, new CHL, new C-Card,….and on top of that I was leaving that afternoon on a weekend MC trip and had $800 cash in it. The sad thing is I 99% sure I know who it was that took it, I just can’t prove it. He still works here too. Just goes to show you that you can never be too cautious. Olie |

Well Olie, I am a firm believer in karma. I have no doubt that at some point the people who ripped you off and ripped me off will get a payback of some type. |

As a matter of fact, about 3 months after my wallet came up missing the "gentleman" (and I use that word loosely) that I suspect took it got robbed, and he had just cashed his paycheck. What goes around comes around! Olie |

On a more serious note, I was playing a gig 'way back when/another lifetime, etc, etc and had my coat hanging on the back of a chair at a table right next to the stage. Silly girl. End of the night, sans coat, billfold and car keys. Not happy. Needless to say, I developed the habit of keeping my personal belongings *on stage*. On a positive, my billfold was returned about a month later. Found on the side of a road many miles away all intact less the cash of course. It was my good fortune the guy that returned it saw all the 'music related' receipts and being a player tracked me down to return it. Sweet. Good vibes to Gregory and to the return of his property. Best Regards, Kimberly |

Yup, the world we live in is a sad place at times. Its sad but you can never truly trust the heart of mankind! I am also a great believer in karma, each action is balanced out in an appropriate manner - we truly reap what we sow! Being a victim leaves a bad taste in the mouth, its a sore lesson for sure!
