Silly Things Concerning Crooks

Have you ever wanted to send a nice note to a crook? I almost wanted to once. We had just bought a brand new Ford LTD, our first brand new automobile. It wasn't really what I wanted but there was a reason we bought that one but thats another story. Even though Mel had lots of junk in the garage because he liked to repair things  we scooped everything over to the sides so we could fit our new car in and we faithfully put it in the garage inside every night. One morning we discovered someone had broke into our garage and took some new ramps to raise a vehicle to work on it. The crooks had taken other things from the front of the garage and put them on the new car to get to the ramps. We realized the new car didn't have a scratch on it even though there was still junk on it. Especially me was so thankful they didn't scratch my brand new car I almost wanted to thank them. Another silly thing--once someone broke into our house while we were gone about an hour and took quite a few good articles. Guns, microwave, camera, nice new coat---  when we found out the first thing I thought was thank goodness I cleaned house today. Silly silly silly, but that's me.

Considerate crooks are hard to find. I'm glad the car wasn't scratched. I tend to keep my house messy so it will scare the robbers away!

How considerate of them to be careful with your new car! I'm sure that was a fluke. Very odd thought, to have cleaned for thieves. Ha Ha. I had a friend who had the same type of home invasion, took the same kinds of thinks. I wonder about the new coat ...

WE just counted we have had 5 break-ins and not a danged one did I want to thank them. hahahahahahaha. However I did appreciate ignorance in thieves once. I accidentally left my safe open and someone broke into the house. I had a pistol lying on the top of everything. Just under the pistol was a pile of contracts covering the cash and bonds that was there. They took the cheap .22 revolver and left a lot of company money!!! So I guess I could thank them for being ignorant. LOL
But I can understand appreciating the fact the car was not scratched, especially being new.
