While i am attending Edinboro University near Erie, PA I am living in this little hick town. Sometimes I leave my car unlocked and now I know I shouldn't. Someone broke into my car and stole my wallet. That is not the worst of it. Credit cards are replacable. I had a bunch of cds in there but they only took four. And one of them was the new Squarepusher I have had for a week. Why that one? I got it for 12.99 at this cheap record store that is now 400 miles away and i won't be able to go to for a while. Sorry if you don't care but I had to vent

if it makes you feel any better my car had a window smashed in and $1000 of cd's in my two cd wallets stolen, 2 printers that i had in my trunk, a graphing calculator for school, my cd player, and my school books. they also ripped out my center console in hopes of finding a non-existant hidden stash of something. on top of that, the window that they broke didn't work right anyways, so i had to replace a broken window that would be broken even when it was fixed.
so life could be worse, eh? at least you're alive.
sorry about your loss though. makes you feel kind of violated when someone does that.

Sorry to hear about your woes, Content... to reassure you that life ain't always like that: 2 weeks ago I went out, got twatted, got cab home. Next day I couldn't find my wallet. Very annoyed cos it had £30-odd cash and another £30 worth of receipts I had to claim back from my employers (from buying beer for Emma, Ibi, Toby, Red Design et al as it happens). Convinced I'd left it in club or taxi, but they couldn't find it. Just getting annoyed when the doorbell rang - bloke from down the road had found it on the pavement, and returned it, cash and cards all still there. I should have given him a tip, I think, but I was too hungover and gobsmacked to do it before he left.
I don't know what he made of the stack of Necro-cards in there - the ones that say "I support sexual liberation - after my death I would like my body to be used for gay/straight/any sexual activity (delete as applicable)

one piece of advice. I could care less about my car. if someone broke into it or took it I would be mad, but that is what insurance is for. for me music is everything. and I too have some cds that I know I can never get again. so that is why I only take one cd with me at a time when I drive. so if my car does get broken into, I have only lost that one. as opposed to $1000 worth.

IF I were collecting CD's, it would seem like CD-R's would make for a pretty great insurance policy for those hard-to-get cd's...
I mean, 8 € for 10 empty cd's...

yeah, i know it was kind of stupid to have all those cds in my car, but i spend 3 hours a day in my car and i basically live in it. i just kind of had them in there for my own ease. but i don't do that anymore since i learned quite the hard way. whatever. i've going to drive my car into lake michigan when i need it no longer. i really can't wait to do that. wonder what the fine will be?

yeah, the same thing happened to me. i was just like: "shit..." and i never really freaked out about it. i just kinda calmly took it and dealt with it cause i knew there was nothing i could do. shit happens. when it does, you just gotta deal with it. so i walked down the block to the police station and reported it and that was that. my insurance didn't cover dick cause all the personal stuff wasn't covered in my policy. at least my cd collection is small and good now... but i do wish i had more. new start? that's the best way to look at it. i just gotta make more of my own music to make up for it!
