Highway Robbery
Well gentle reader, if you are squeamish, now is the time to look away. Last night your beloved Lo Fat Mo's vehicle was burglarized. Yes, I've had my latest brush with the "big city crime problem", and it wasn't pretty. I had initially intended to leave my car in Mountain View, since I was cleaning out the apartment and didn't want the hassle of parking in my neighborhood. Unfortunately in my zeal to clean out my old apartment I missed the last train and had to drive back to SF - with things in the back seat.
Yes, harsh lessons for our young hero, and similarly strong lessons for the guys who got a bunch of old clothes headed to Goodwill, an empty box of The Macallan (sorry Pedro, they stole your gift) and a bag of cleaning supplies. When you see a crummy old car, it's really not even worth the trouble of breaking in. Frankly I felt a little insulted that they broke in, ransacked the car and quickly determined that the most valuable thing to take was a bag of old clothing.

Those bastards! I will have to come out there and make them pay!
Anyway, I had my bar broken into outside of the apartment about three weeks ago. I noticed they went through everything but only found about 2.50$ in change that I had in my ashtray. The lack of stereo probably had them annoyed...

It sounds like the majority of the damage here was a little pride & personal space. It could have been much worse. But still, sorry to hear.
