B's car was broken into sev times. He has a crappy 12 yr Sentra E class car. His windows got smashed and the locked ripped out and the radio pulled out. All useless theft/breakins. We were sure it was training. It sucks. lock up the bakfiet well. my neighbors had 1000's of $$ worth of road bikes stolen from our garage too. sucks sucks sucks.MamaVeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09519007680870604271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535246666645795951.post-57825199173423646952009-11-17T13:20:32.752-05:002009-11-17T13:20:32.752-05:00This is LAME, both about your van and the bike sho...This is LAME, both about your van and the bike shop. I can relate to your boys' response - it's hard not to take this random violence as a personal attack. I've experienced all of this at some point (car vandalism, home burgled, bike stolen), and every time it has made me more paranoid and cautious about securing my stuff. Not a fun lesson to learn through personal experience.Matt in Tacomahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18179021767214712543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3535246666645795951.post-2326177673269192612009-11-17T04:04:29.525-05:002009-11-17T04:04:29.525-05:00SUCKS! I had the exact same thing happen in July. ...SUCKS! I had the exact same thing happen in July. I was walking out towards the garage and thought, "hey that's funny, the reflection of the sky is really weird in the window." <br /><br />It was smashed beyond belief, with shards still pokey and all. It's not personal, but it sure sucks. And it's a pain. Getting a window replaced on the car I don't often drive... not a wonderful way to spend the afternoon. <br /><br />Good thing my father-in-law has a shop vac. Glass was everywhere:( And the gigantic rock they threw at the car was in the driver's seat too!Miss Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01390795013644405649noreply@blogger.com
