I went to a movie one night with some buddies, when we came out somebody had stolen (one) of my Camaro smoked headlight covers, which of course made the other one useless. Thanks guys at least take them both next time :D

The incidents where our bikes were actually stolen, and the incidents where someone took off my pedals I am not even mentioning.

(I had a reason this time just getting a $50 used bike. Seeing that I must live in an apt complex with DOUCHES I predict it won't take long until it's gone too). We live in a GATED apt complex, so the chances that strangers "get in" and then go all the way back there where the bikes are "to take out some batteries" is NIL.

Seriously I hate people.

Needed some batteries for my Apple TV remotes.

If it's any consolation, I actually did feel bad about it. I don't care anymore because you called me mean things.

Liar! Liar! Everybody knows Apple TV remotes run on pure awesomeness.

Someone went through my car once, and selectively stole some of my cassettes; the best ones of course.

:biggrin:

Don't forget Tony Orlando & Dawn.

Why you bashing on Herb, J/K throw in some Chuck Mangione.

Sonny & Cher up there too.

Been digging Bob James' Touchdown album lately. Kind of 70s smooth jazz cheese, but it still sounds good. It's the one with Angela(theme from Taxi). Love the flute on that one

The one thing I see that makes me really angry is when a pregnant woman gets on the subway and no one offers up their seat. Almost all the time its 20 and 30 something men (bros) sitting in the seat that just look away and ignore. :rolleyes:

When I lived in an apartment, I kept my bike in my apartment.

Me too, though you should keep it inside no matter where you live. People get things stolen off their back porch all the time. Unless you have razor wire and angry pitbulls in your back yard it's really not much more secure than the front, the only difference is psychological.

and Herb Alpert!
and the Tijuana Brass....My Dad played it on the RCA Victor tube stereo when I was a kid. It had a detachable speaker. Good stuff.


And, dang, you're old.:p


OP, many, many bike haters in the world. Heck, many of them here. Stop sign ignorers Unite.

Those cell batteries are hard to find too. Easier to buy a new light or wire up some AAs. Maybe there's a black market for these batteries and they sell for a lot on the street. :p

Though I always figured pedal bike lights just used a little generator that goes on the wheel. I guess it still needs a battery and power converter to smooth out the voltage though.

Many years ago (like 40+), I had one like that but I don't think it had a battery. When I stopped, so did the light.

The battery in his key fob was dead, and he couldn't figure out how to unlock the car with the key.

I had those in the '80s and '90s. Seems to add a bit too much resistance having the generator on the tire.

Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass is the shit!

I had my bike pump stolen once. It's the one thing I can't secure so if I walk in somewhere it comes with me.

Perhaps he read some of your mind-bendingly stupid posts in P&N and thought this would distract you from posting there again?
