I’m sure many of you have stolen at least once in your entire lives.  You’ve maybe stolen at least a few dozen times.  The first thing I can remember stealing was a jellybean from the supermarket in one of those self-serve containers.  A big old dude with a mustache from the meat department was walking by as I was doing it.  I can still remember what he said to me.  “Boy, don’t you be doing that again!” 

I nearly crapped myself at the tender age of 5.  I think I’m now proud to say I’ve hardly stolen since then.  Well maybe except for MP3’s, a few downloaded movies, and some toilet paper from my apartment’s gym.  But for the most part, I’m clean.  At the same time, I’ve been stolen from too.  I don’t know of anything that pisses me off more than being jacked.  When someone had the nerve to break into my car to take my stereo got me so hot headed.  Seeing all that broken glass littering my car made me feel so violated.  Luckily my friend installed my stereo by bolting it into the dash and all the crook got off with was some gum.  Idiot. 

Just recently BMX riders Anthony Napolitan, Nick Stebben, and Mark Flipowicz’s had their bike stolen while at the Dew Tour this past weekend in Orlando.  Anthony notified the guys from Transworld BMX to let them know he’s pretty mad.  Not sure how he’s planning on getting it back but this should be a warning to you all to keep your bikes locked up.  I’m thinking this DUDE took it. 

I think we can all agree that getting jacked is a bummer.  So let’s all make a pact that we will never steal from each other again.  And if you break it don’t worry because karma will git ya!
