Back 2 weeks before Christmas I had a CD wallet of 25 Cds stolen out of my
car. I normally lock my car but I was late for a meeting, and as I was
crossing the street, I had the sudden "ting" in my head asking me if I
locked my car, but kept on moving. Returning to my car 1/2 hour later I
found my cell phone laying where I had left it, but no CD wallet (I never
leave it where anybody can see it, but happen to on this day). Yeah it
sucked big time!!!  Lucky for me, about half the wallet was CD-Rs. The rest
I went directly to the mall and bought what I could find. Some friends
helped me replace the rest..thanks Matt Moring, Chris Kouzes and Mike
Kropp!!

But the real shitty part was my George Harrison CD"Cloud Nine" was gone. Now
I have to wait till Olivia gives the word for the reissues to begin.

I now carry a 32 CD wallet with me and take extra care for its security.
