Last night, I almost ordered a Trygon from FW. But I hesitated, I dunno why. I wanna get one, just to add something fresh and cool to my swarm and also because out of all the big nid FW stuff, the trygon head will be the easiest to Alienify to match my army.

Today I was gonna order it, but I wanted to hit the game store and get some stuff.. I go out to my groovy Honda Element, start her up, switch the radio to AUX and turn on my iPod .. oops wait, no i didn't, because my iPod and the cable connecting it to my car stereo grew legs and walked away last night It was old, the battery needed a recharge every couple days of just going back and forth to work... No huge loss, it lived a good life and the brat that took it won't get much mileage out of it anyway. so since I can't survive my morning commute without it, I had to go get a new one... the 30 gig one set me back $250, $100 of that would have been turned into said tyrgon. But not now

If only the hoodlum neighborhood brats would get a real hobby like playing 40K instead of drinking the woods near my house, stuff like this wouldn't happen. (and if I learned to lock my car)

Sorry, just needed to complain

Well, at least you learned your lesson.

1) Lock your car.
2) Keep expensive things in your car out of plain sight.

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY
3) ALWAYS OBEY THE URGE TO IMPULSE BUY FROM FORGEWORLD.

I had my cellphone sitting there right next to it, and they didn't want it.. it wasn't a cool high tech one, maybe that's why.

My new iPod will not be left in my car, however

Your technologickal gewgaws confuse and anger me.

I guess I'd be more at home planting turnips or swinging a zweihander into the gorget of some fool than having to come to grips with why Justin Timberlake is trying to bring sexy back from a place that it should have damn well stayed.

But to the original topic: I blame the schools.

If the local brats played 40k, they'd just steal the mail-order packages from your doorstep instead. So you'd still be out a Trygon :p

I pity the brats who are so messed up in the head they spend their nights trying to drink the woods. Talk about splinters in a bad place... ^_^

I always hide my iPod when it's in my car. I have this great gizmo that broadcasts the iPod music on an FM frequency so my car radio can play it, but the problem with it is that it sticks up very prominenty. I'm uncomfortable with that, so I always stick it in a hard to see nook, the glove box, or my pocket. I've taken it to bad parts of Oakland and San Francisco and never had a problem. Always hide it, it's just too tempting a target.

And I can't imagine not locking my car. I'd freak out.

I wish that idea could work- I'd have my $12,500 stolen bike back.

What bike did you have stolen? Pls dont tell me it was a bicycle that cost that much. a girl at my work place had hers stolen from the carpark and hers cost £1500, she later got a cheaper on for £400 and that got stolen to. We worked in a Prison at that time. and they were both stolen from the staff car park/
