Lesson learned. Locks are already in the plans. I am looking for a house but even with that in mind I am going to get locks until I can move.

I don't see an "Order Now" button on your ad, tats. I'll squint at it again.

I remember when I was around 15 someone stole some gameboy games from me, which weren't even mine (borrowed from another friend).

When I found out about the missing, I instantly had that particular "friend" in mind who was the only prime suspect. Sure I had no 100% prove it was him, but he came over the otherday and after that they were missing.

So I confronted him and made up that story, that few games that we recently played together suddenly were missing and that I had rented them from a shop, and if I can't find them back I would have to pay the full price to that shop and that it would financially completely ruined me.

Seemed that I really touched a weak nerve on him, because he suddenly offered to help me to find the games back, but that he first have to go home to do some stuff and come over to my house to help search the games later on.

When he came over, I said that he can go to my room while I would get me some juice from the fridge, when he went into the room, I spied him out what he's doing and I saw him crawling under my desk doing something there (lol). So I was letting him play his game.

When I entered the room, he was looking around at several places pretending to finding the games and eventually he's crawling back under that desk and yells with a big suprised voice that he just had found the games lying there behind the desk.

I didn't took any further action against him, but was innerly ubersatisfied that my plan of getting the games back came together with a full success.

OLOLOLOL!!!

Hahaha! Another laugh of the day!

Well, the only story I could relate here is when I was a kid, I ran into an a$$hole at an arcade who happened to know where I lived. He was an acquaintance of a friend of mine. I was still there after he left, and I don't remember if he asked me how long I was gonna stick around, but he came up with the idea of going to my house with 2 of his friends to see if he could trick my mom into giving him some of my games. My mom apparently answered the door and he told her that I had borrowed some NES games from him, so she brought a few of them to the door to have him pick out which ones were "his," etc. You get the idea... I don't remember the details, but I lost Alpha Mission and a few others I believe, he swapped 'em for shitty titles, etc. He and his friends were gangbangers and last I heard in that time period, he wound up in juvenile jail and what not... Whatever... It wasn't a great loss, but I couldn't believe the actions on my mom's part...

I had a friend in middle school that would come over to the house from time to time. He had moved up to Indiana from Georgia and had a real superiority complex stemming from his "loyalty" to the southern way of life. I was short on friends at the time and always welcomed company over to play Genesis and SNES. I remember when I got Flashback (Genesis) when it was first released and wowing both of us with its rotoscoped animation (and I was always attracted to its minimal soundtrack). After that first weekend spent with the game I found it missing. Putting the evidence together I decided that he took it upon himself to relieve me of Flashback. The first day back at school I somehow broke into his locker and searched through his book bag. Sure enough there was my game in one of the side pockets. When he found out that I liberated my game back he was pretty upset.

I know the guy now and see him from time to time. This was one case where the guy grew up and turned into a pretty swell dude.

Well I know she stayed in Pemberton, New Jersey and other cities close by there. On her medical examine for the trial she detailed in a pretty lengthy interview that she was basically whoring out herself for some old drug seller guy there. They were both supposedly bad on drugs and going to swingers parties and shit before the two supposedly found Jesus and toned down their whoring drugging ways a few notches. If she has HIV or something it wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Matti:

Late to the party here but nonetheless sad to hear about the theft. Agree with folks that your best course of action is probably just to buy back what you can, deadbolt that door and cut off ties with the bro (at least bar him from coming over to your place). Shitty situation and a tough choice to make. If it's anybody else that's an instant police report/arrest but I get where you're coming from.

best of luck dude!

that's my neck o the woods. (30 minutes or so)  And I do mean woods, scary back woods. Hell some o those foke or more red neck than you'll find in the deep south.  that being said That is all possible.  very possible indeed as out there both the drugs and Jesus freak can be found.  Only two type of people I ever met there off the Military Base. On a strange side note prof.  My uncle lived out that way and met a woman from arkansas and ran off with her back to Ak.
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

This saga is getting increasingly disturbing! I don't know where Pemberton is...but I will be sure to avoid it!
