Theft

A friend of our family has a daughter at Kansas University and the girl had given her mother a call one morning when she went outside to go to her car in the dorm parking lot. The girl said, "I can't find my car."

The mom, trying to give here daughter a pep talk said, "Now I can't come over there and find your car for you - keep looking and you'll find it."

But Mom....

As it turns out, the girl searched the entire parking lot and it was gone, with the spot she though she had parked it littered with broken glass.

The car was stolen and hasn't been recovered. Someone said that students at KU have had so much problem with theft at KU that some have left messages on their window that "There's nothing worth stealing in here"

Who are these thieves? Certainly the days of leaving the computer and bike unattended, the cars unlocked and the dorm room door open are long gone, never to return.

Older, sadder and wiser.
