That sucks Andrew. At least thats all they got. I had someone break into my van once. They took 3 nailguns, 2 stapleguns, 2 saws, and a recipricating saw. About $2500 worth of stuff. 4 days before I was going on vacation to Colorado. Yes it was a fairly broke trip Stinking thieves suck! Plus I had my apartment robbed once, and a million other things. I say lets kill thieves! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sorry to hear about what happened to your sister, SomeGuy.

Look at the bright side -- at least your sister didn't get hurt physically.

Good point. Things can be replaced. Way too many wierdos out there!

I once had my car robbed right outside the front door of a Coogee recording studio. I opened the door at around 3am, and noticed the doors and boot open with stuff on the ground. I thought,
"Eh? I didn't do that..." then I realised it was a thief. At that moment, like a rat exposed to light, the guy ran away from the far side of the car. I yelled after him in a wierd low testosterone induced growl/yell, but initially left it at that.

I checked the car. I'd lost a heap of CDs, a sound module, and a priceless controller for an old analogue keyboard.

I felt so violated. Like the inside of the car was dirty.

I went looking for the guy(s) after calling the cops but no luck.
The owner of the studio came around the next morning with a 'henchman' and expressed outrage that that had happened due to the local 'people' he knew....

Whatever.

I never got the stuff back, and unrelatedly, didn't hire/work for/use the studio again.

But I got a story out of it.

No, that sucks. What if they get the wrong guy? Or if it's a sixteen year old kid who makes one mistake. It hampers their chance to get honest work and get and make an "honest living".

The amount of hate I see here at IW sickens me sometimes.

Someguy, I'm sorry to hear that happened to your sister.
My flat was burgled once (not the one I'm in now, but a previous one). They took my VCR and a camcorder. The burglary itself wasn't too bad, I felt more violated by the Met Police SOC unit who made a huge mess all over my flat, and the Spanish Inquisition I got from the insurance company who didn't want to pay up.
