What’s Next — Molotovs?

     Apparently, someone decided to slash my tire today, sometime after 10AM today, at my homeZacque, being the photographer that he is (and having superior equipment), got a nice picture of it… In the rain, even, with crappy lighting…

Slashed

     I have to consider four things about this:  A) Mine was the only tire slashed; B) there’s never any traffic when I come home; C) Exactly two people know where I live (outside of a very close-knit circle of friends who are considered family, and they value my privacy as much as their own); D) I know exactly where Person #2 was between 10AM & 4:30PM when the problem was discovered.

     If I had actually done anything to anyone to deserve the kind of crap that’s been going on lately, I’d take my lumps.

     But since I haven’t …

     Circumstantial proof is difficult without a preponderance of it…  So, I say, “Hey!  Bring it on!”  ;-)

     Besides, maybe now I’ll save some money on gas… *grin*

    Wow Mark, That blows!!

    Although, I’d take a tire slashing over a door keying. . . .

  2. Mark Says:

    Keying it wouldn’t even phase me … LOL That car’s seen better days as is, but it does get me where I need to go. ;-)

    This makes the second time this year some psychotic asshat has taken out their pent-up frustration on my vehicle. The first one got what was coming to him, and the instigator got hers even harder. Of course, all that’s a matter of Public Record now. *grin*

    My boss just bought a Ferrarabourghiorshe car. (Its red, fast, and cost more than I make in a year) Anyways, He went to pick it up at the dealer this week and there was a 3-4mm deep gouge across the one side, more than an arm length.

    He was well pissed!

    I quietly thought to myself, no one would key my shitbox Civic. Bless!

    Sorry you keep getting shit on lately. After just half of what you’ve written about lately, I’d be locked in the house with a baseball bat and a case of beer, and the phone would probably be floating down First Creek.

  5. Judy Says:

    That was really pissy of the jerk! I hate when mean people breed!
    Peace!

  6. Mark Says:

    Joey: I have a ‘92 Grand Am with that incredible peeling GM paint job. But it runs great … heh

    Sam: Thpft. What’s the point? That’s exactly what they want. I won’t let the terrorists win. *grin*

    Judy: I used to wear a button on my leather jacket that said, “MEAN PEOPLE SUCK!” If course, I also had one that said, “I DON’T LIKE YOUR NEGATIVE ATTITUDE, ASSHOLE!” ;-)

    It’s like I said … My “Give a Damn” is broken….

  7. Judy Says:

    Well if you read my blog post the other day called some people , You can see what the jerks do over my way when they have nothing to do! I just don’t understand people!.
    Peace Mark!

    Mean people suck, Mark. Aren’t you glad you gots me and Zacque to love ya on a day in, day out basis??

    And no! I don’t ignore you, but I couldn’t answer the phone during my job interview for gosh sakes. You know how perfect you have to be to get a high paying job at a tanning salon???

  10. Mark Says:

    Ummm … damn, that sounded wrong … ROFL … Besides, ya forgot Jewel, too. *grin*

    You’re right, tho. Most women only love me a few hours at a time … heh

    #@$!^%$&#%#@

    That’s what I said at Judy’s and I meant it so I’ll say it for you too.

    That happened to us once too… we know who it was but couldn’t prove a damn thing. Stupid dumbass people. Can’t win a battle of wits so they vandalize. Sheesh.

    I hope you get to the bottom of it.

    And Diva… you should come to Saskatchewan. The job market here is such that a potential employee could answer a call during an interview and still get the job. Employers here are desperate for workers. I get so mad at how service here sucks because no one gives a shit because they think they don’t have to anymore. It was like that in Alberta a while back and now we’re experiencing it.

    Come North… we have better beer. ;-)

  12. Mark Says:

    We have better Canadian beer than Canada, and a bigger selection of imports. ;-)

  13. fracas Says:

    Well :-P to you then. I don’t drink beer anyway…

    Okay, here’s something my country has that your country doesn’t…

    ME.

    Hah. Try as you might to top that, you can’t.

    Tee Hee.

  14. fracas Says:

    And why does my : - P icon look happy? It’s supposed to be sticking out a tongue. Sheesh.

  15. Mark Says:

    ME.

    Hah. Try as you might to top that, you can’t.

    I wouldn’t try … Married women are strictly off-limits. *snicker*

  16. fracas Says:

    I should’ve known you’d find *that* joke in there.

    However, you are avoiding the very valid point I happened to make. Canada has me. That automatically gives it the win. (And you know… having me is what makes everyone willing to forgive the dang country for being so tolerant of everything.)
