Started by day with a trip to the gym and being robbed on the street
Ah, what a good day so far.
So, for the first time in ages, I am actually in my own home for a Monday morning. Which meant I could do my normal routine of riding my bike to the gym in the morning and then working at the tea shop across the street for about an hour after the gym. I was about halfway home on my bike when two guys come out of nowhere and lift my laptop bag out of my bike basket WHILE I AM MOVING. Okay, I am not moving fast..I had just crossed the street ..but still! So, I get off and scream things my mother would not be proud of me saying as the two guys run down a side street. Luckily. there are two witnesses - one of which was a 68 year old ex-security guard- who clocked every detail about the guys while the other one called the police. The police were there in about five minutes and ten minutes later they caught the guys, found my laptop down an alley and arrested them. I had to give statements and things. I even got my first ride in the back of a police car. Thank goddess I got my laptop back and everything works fine. I may just treat myself to a drink now though. |

lucky they got caught. someone jacked my phone out of my hand a few months ago at a bar and took off. luckily my gf was able to track the location with her iPhone and had the police arrest them and got my phone back... even tho the cop DROPPED IT and cracked the front :mad: |
sorry to hear :(
|
Pretty awesome that you got back your stuff...
|
it's a good thing you got your notebook back!
Where do you live Sarah? |
guess the race
|
I bet getting your laptop back was a nicer feeling than buying it in the first place.
|
Do you wanna fuck? I could give you one if ya like... :pimp Consider this reply as one given.

you're actually lucky, Sarah. I've been robbed at gunpoint and they NEVER caught the perps. I'm glad you got your mac back. That shit was NOT cheap!

The cops were like 'do you want them to be charged?'. I controlled my smart ass turrets and didn't reply on how I would be totally happy to release two brazen daylight robbers back into the population. |
I could see that sketchy shit happening in San Francisco, but it seems out of character for Alameda.
Glad everything ended well, Sarah. :) |

If you had a PC, they prolly would have left you alone... :winkwink:

I'm so happy things ended positively for you Sarah! The worm could have turned quickly the other way with desperate sketchy people like that.
Sending positive vibes of strength and serenity your way http://sunsweptfarm.net/wp-content/u...an-opening.jpg |
Prime opportunity for a massive viral video missed. Next time keep a couple of Fleshlight sleeves in your bag. When confronted start flailing them about their heads wildly like some rubbery nunchucks. It will be on every news program around the world!

Maybe I missed a reply or thread, but what happened to MaxCash? How are you enjoying it stateside again, aside from the occasional muggings?
