The better-than-nothing conclusion to the saga of my stolen scooter
This is all the police were able to recover after I found parts of my beloved scooter for sale on Craigslist last week. (background: my grandpa’s scooter, which he gave my family in the 90s and I fixed up in 2009, was stolen in broad daylight last August)
The guy who was selling them bought a box of miscellaneous parts at a flea market and didn’t have any information about the guy he bought them from, so no chance at getting the motor or chassis.
I don’t really need these parts, but they are better than nothing and they will make great wall art in my apartment and one hell of a conversation starter.
It’s sick to see a fully functional, beautiful machine stripped to nothing by someone looking to make a quick buck, but such is life and all that crap. I suppose I can take the key off my keyring now and start shopping for motorcycles for the spring.
The cruel reality of TV ratings in 2011. Props for the Grace Under Fire pull.
27.7 million: Viewers for the season premiere of Two and a Half Men — a shockingly high number, and the most-watched sitcom since 2005′s Everybody Loves Raymond series finale.
27.3 million: Viewers who watched a rerun of Grace Under Fire on a Tuesday in March 1995. A rerun.
The peak of my phone photography career. Can’t top this one, folks. Had a good run.
