Yesterday, when my wife came home from seeing a friend of hers, she left the garage door open overnight. As a result, some enterprising person seized the opportunity for personal enrichment for no work, relieved us of our cd�s.
So, I�m sitting here thinking, yeah, the are only cd�s. A few hundred dollars worth, but big deal, they can be replaced.
I only hope they like jazz, cause whoever they are, they got some of my best stuff. I do find it upsetting to think that most likely, they are going to toss the jazz or get rid of it without realizing they have some good stuff.
I'm off to seach the cd cases to see what's gone.

A couple of years ago, my wife gave me a cd portable cd carrier for my car that was pretty big and I filled it up. A count of empty cd holders reveals that I lost...
56 jazz/swing 30 pop/rock
I�m not sure how many my wife lost, but they got her car too.
*sigh*

Step 1: file a police report and get a copy of it to keep. Step 2: go t your local pawn shops and look for your stuff. If it's there, call the officer handling the case. The officer can get your stuff back from the Pawn Shop and find out who sold it there.
It's a shot in the dark, but I got a camera back that way once.

It would be refreshing to find out if the people who stole the CD's actually stole it because they liked jazz. This would show that, even though they are petty criminals, they actually have some taste in music.

I assume you had your cars unlocked as well then? Guess they didn't know how to hotwire your car. Be glad.

Sorry to hear about your CDs getting lifted. But this presents an excellent excuse to: Buy an iPod! Or better yet, make the parents of the kids who stole your CDs buy you an iPod.

Yeah, well lifing cd's is a far cry from boosting a car.
At any rate, they are gone. Such is life. Now that I have a computer that has a cd burner, I think that I'll make use of TSN's idea.
And I'll start building my collection again.
