I can't stand a thief........
June 04, 2014, 07:53:02 PM
Got up Monday morning to do some yard work...I thought....
Had my morning coffee and got everything ready to go. I discovered that I probably didn't have enough line for the weed eater.
I ran 1/4 mile up the road to the local hardware store and bought some line and shot the bull with a boy that works out there about turkey season this year...bad mistake....
Was gone 35 minutes. Pulled up in my drive, looked up on the carport and everything I had was gone...
1 riding mower, 1 new push mower, 1 small 12 gal. compressor that i'd blown the front tire of the rider up with, 2 ten gallon cans full of gas, and one 14' fiskar brand pole pruner.....in 35 minutes they wiped my arse out....
Mad is a very, very small understatement.....live in a very small community with almost zero crime...glad I had all my serial #'s written down to give to the Sheriffs Dept....gotta' hit the pawn shops and hope I get lucky...lesson learned the hard way....

I hate it. I hope you recover some of your belongings. A thief can make a man mad enough to do something stupid.
If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

Work things will definitely turn up in the pawn shop. Methhead.

Pawn shops should turn up something, it's safe to bet they aren't going to us anything that requires work!! It's sad these things happen in "good" neighborhoods all the time

Thieves suck. Sorry that happened to you, and I hope you recover your belongings.

It is an anger that cannot be adequately described without using language that would likely get one banned...
Having been robbed on a couple of occasions it goes far beyond having your stuff taken...
Did I do that?

Iv had guns and a 4 wheeler stolen. It's a miserable feeling. I hope you find out who it was. They must have had eyes on you to pull it off.

Wow, Sorry to hear BB. That amount of stuff in 35 min is a pretty coordinated effort. Amazing what people do for drugs!
