Had my 120 dollar Oakley's in my TYR goggle case stolen from my backpack while I was taking a shower tonight. The pool manager is going to check his camera DVR for the lobby and entryway to see if the crook was dumb enough to walk out with them exposed. God this makes me mad. The only positive thing about this is that I did not catch the guy in the act...I might be in the pokey right about now. You are all probably much wiser than me, since most of you are older( I'm 31) :p, but you've got to keep your stuff locked up ALL the time. Too lazy to earn something themselves so they take it from somebody else...wastes of precious oxygen IMHO.
Sorry for the rant but I just had to vent some frustratrion.

I hope karma bit the kid in the butt enough to warrant stitches. People who steal things live with the self-knowledge they are theives, which is inevitably detrimental to their self-esteem. Stealing also reflects an attitude that it is not possible to be successful and prosperous honestly. It reflects and reinforces a feeling that the world is an unfriendly, hostile place that does not provide for us. That's the karma right there--it resides right in the thiefs mind and can't be avoided.
