WTF is going on over there? Have all the fires and smog made everybody crazy?
My girl had to take a flight out to LA for a family member's funeral. They rented the shittiest little mauve-colored Honda hatchback they could find from the shadiest rental agency they could find and were staying at a relative's place in Hawthorne. In the middle of the freaking day, someone drives off with the rental. Duh?
Worst thing is that all her stuff was still in the car, including a digicam and a laptop that is probably worth more than the car. So now she and her mother are stuck in LA with no spare clothes, no car, and probably out $2000 on a computer hardware, just because aunt edna had to bite it and some stupid mexican wanted a car to run across the border in.
Oh, and there were innumerable irreplacable personal items - emails between her and I, pictures that exist nowhere else, etc. on that lappy and elsewhere in her luggage. If anyone in SoCal sees a mauve Honda hatchback with black donut style rims, tires worn to nothing, and a Toshiba laptop and a king sized set of luggage full of bras and panties - then DESTROY IT. We must not allow certain data and items to fall into unauthorized hands. Of course, I handled the data security myself, and it should be well beyond the reach of any casual thief. It should also prove to be difficult to install a new OS, because the BIOS is passworded and booting from removable media is disallowed. But in the event that, well, the US Government stole that car with the intention of learning about my love life and the workings of my mind, then I'm fvcked.
Oh well, at least the plane tickets for the return trip were in mommy's purse.
What's the problem with all these SoCal nuts? Who just steals the ugliest, most worthless car imaginable?
