Some bastard broke into my house

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

To the bastard that broke into my house, you are going to pay for it somehow.

The fact that you left a $2500 carbon fibre bike, and instead took a $5 rolex fake, is testament to the size of your brain. The fact that you took all the costume jewellery and left a 1 carat diamond ring, is further testament to your intelligence.

The fact that you took the 70 cents in my camelbak, and left the camelbak, shows that crime does not pay.

Your stupid dumb **** (kindly insert your version of the expletive).

Having had my house broken into I can understand that it is beyond the material things. Its the feeling that some stupid f*ck has violated your personal space that gets to you more than the piddly stupid junk that they've taken. Makes you want to grab them by the scruff of the neck and rub their nose in it like a dog whose poo'd on the carpet. Bad - boy -bad bad bad!

You want vengeance for 70c and some fake jewellery?70c can buy two soft serve cones at Hungry Jacks. After a wokout on a 37degree day, priceless!! :cool:

Makes you want to grab them by the scruff of the neck and rub their nose in it like a dog whose poo'd on the carpet. Bad - boy -bad bad bad!I understand the sentiment and your response is probably the most appropriate for someone who is obviously very stupid,but...70c and some fake jewellery?I think I would breathe a big sigh of relief and be happy that was all I had lost.
Actually,I feel a small amount of pity for the burglar.He has obviously never experienced the pleasures of cycling or he would have stolen the bike and is obviously so thick that he will soon be doing time.

70c can buy two soft serve cones at Hungry Jacks. After a wokout on a 37degree day, priceless!! :cool:Or half a can of beer!
OK,I've changed my mind...torture the bastard forever.
:)

Sorry,couldn't resist...the devil promised me beer for life if I wrote that.

Oh I forgot to add that he took my Nikon D100 lenses and all, totaling to about $3K in replacement value.

That is causing me so much pain, its taken me so long to be able to write all this. I was also in the middle of a photoraphy assignment ... now where am I going to find another camera in 4 days?

Oh man that sucks I would be seriously p*ssed about that. I might lend you mine, but I think I'm half way around the world from you...... check around -there might be a camera store in your area that rents equipment or another generous photographer that would be willing to lend/rent you some equipment until your insurance - hopefully you are insured? comes through. Or maybe even check the local pawn shops to see if you can find your stuff - I would think that there's not too many places a dumb thief can unload a good camera. I think I'll go record all of my serial numbers now......

Thanks for your offer. I am really torn between just going to the shops to get a S3 pro, or just try and get another used D100 ...

Might try and borrow one ... but chances are slim.

I have a very, very vocal Australian Shepherd what got big teeth; and her nickname is Slomin Shield........you'd rather go someplace else to steal.


:D

I've had my S2pro for a bit over a year and I love it. I used to use an S1pro and a DSC650?? (hard to remember, but one of Kodak's earlier pro models) at work and I found the Fuji to have a better tonal range and color balance. I haven't used any of the high model Nikons.

reminds me of an event a couple of years back, a work collegue got his car broken into in a supermarket carpark (Tesco) the thieves broke the window, stole 6 quid in loose change and a couple of CDs.

totally missed the two laptops and compact presentation projector in the back seat, combined value of 5 grand.

This coming from someone who claims to have been a police officer? (...and a fireman, an astronaut, a cowboy, a princess...etc).
Having someone break into you home is one of the worst non-contact psychological traumas a person could go through.
Someone who was a police officer would know this. And baby, tell us again, where were you a poiceman?

"One of the worst non-contact psychological traumas...",give us a break,you big girl.Someone who posts on the net about "Do-Do problems" obviously has a lot of psychological problems but you can't blame that on a burglary.It might be an irritation and an annoyance but it's nothing more than that.
If you're so interested in my police career...do a search,when you learn how.I am naturally mildly flattered by the attention,even from a headcase.
I ,on the other hand,have no interest in the sad,empty life of someone feels the need to post with such monotonous "regularity" about his excretory functions.
It isn't the actual function that is so funny,it's the fact that you can't shut up about it!
:D :D :D :D

They ignored the $400 in notes sitting next to it.
:eek:
If they had brains,they wouldn't be burglars.They would get an MBA and steal legally. :D

Glad to hear the thieves are just as dumb all over the world.
