A police officer stopped by earlier this evening. My wallet had been found in a trash can by a private citizen (God bless this person) about 5 blocks from my house. The money was gone, but credit cards, atm card, license, and everything else was intact. The cards are worthless as I reported them stolen but it was nice to get the wallet back. My cell phone might have been recovered also. If its mine at least I'll get the SIM card. My block club had an emergency meeting tonight. Several people in the neighborhood have had visits from this particular burgler or else numerous burglers are suddenly invading occupied houses at night and stealing wallets, purses, and cell phones. One victim was a woman in here 80's who is one of the kindest souls you can imagine. Hearing that she had been robbed really pissed me off. Anyway, its nice to know that the neighboorhood is on alert and a lot of eyes will be looking out windows in the middle of the night, mine included. Thats something nice about where I live. When trouble visits we tend to rally around and make a stand.

Burglers!
by frozen one inwoke up this morning to find that someone had broken into my house while i slept.
all that is missing is my billfold (didn't have much money, but replacing the cards will stink) and my cell phone (with a couple hundred numbers).
i wonder why they didn't take my laptop and camera?

Well, spent a couple hundred bucks replacing the phone, getting duplicate licenses, permits, etc, and called all the card companies. What a hassle but I guess it could have been worse. I hope the thief puts the $15-$20 he (or she) got to good use. Twenty here, twenty there...next thing you know a person has enough to buy a nice rock of meth. Now I just have to wait a couple weeks to get my cards in the mail. I already miss the ATM card. I've never been one to worry too much about things that go bump in the night (I live in a 100 year old house and noises are common), but I'm sure that I'll be a little paranoid for a while. I used to have dogs when I lived in the country. Now I live in a city and I'm gone so much of the time that I thought having a dog here would be a bit hard on the dog. I would speculate that one of my cats hid somewhere during the robbery while the other one ran up to the thief hoping to get her ears scratched. I took the day off from work to take care of business. Thats done so now I think I'll open a Newcastle and enjoy the rest of the day.

Woke up this morning to find that someone had broken into my house while I slept. All that is missing is my billfold (didn't have much money, but replacing the cards will stink) and my cell phone (with a couple hundred numbers). I wonder why they didn't take my laptop and camera? The car keys were next to the billfold. If they had grabbed those they could have gotten into the garage which is a real treasure trove. I guess they just wanted money. Anyway, pretty ballsy thing to do.

Your earliest love affairs
by greendawn incan you recall your earlier history of falling in love?
what do you think about those experiences now?
when i think of them i judge them as having been totally vain and naive and having made me too narrow minded, passive and dependant on other people.

If I go back far enough, I think it was with Palmela Handerson.
I run into her once in a while. I'll tell her you said hi.

What is your town or area's claim to fame?
by free2beme inevery where you live, the local area has something about it that is either famous for something good or something bad.
as an example, you go to one town and it may have the historial site of a famous war battle.
you go to another an it might be the place something was invented, or the birthplace of someone famous.

Robert Zimmerman was born in Duluth and lived in a house 3 blocks from mine until his family moved to Hibbing. After graduating, he left Hibbing, changed his name to Bob Dylan, and the rest is history.

This kind of stuff is stupid.
70% of jobs in the next few years would be service related and would require nothing more than a associates degree
Was any definition offered as to what a service job is? A service job is any job that isn't manufacturing, mining, or farming. The service sector is the largest sector in the economy so of course most job growth will be service related. Your bartender, mechanic, and doctor all have service jobs and many service jobs require advanced degrees. The above statement is just plain goofy.
a University President stated that higher education offers no benefits whatsoever
Oh yes, the notorious uncited quote. No university president would make this ridiculus statement. The quotation is fiction.

Recently I had to put one of my cats down after he spent 5 days at the vet's. Five days of "good news-bad news" calls from the vet left me drained. In the end, frozen one wept. I hope you have a much better outcome.
