The reason I never go out to public blogs or message boards is because there is inevitably one dumb-ass who takes a medium for informative dialogue and muddies it up with his non relevant argumentative opinions. JBL… you are that guy. Do us all a favor and get a life. Please… go post on a ‘green earth’ blog and let the victims of this crime have a forum for relevant information exchange.

Joe, obviously, you are not a golfer.

Some of my sorry-ass ideas of late: buy a nice home as close to work as possible; replace all 50-year-old windows with double-paned windows; own one fuel-efficient vehicle; pay less than $250 a month on natural-gas, electricity, and gasoline bills; drink as many frozen with salt margaritas as humanly possible; do all i can to make sure the unconscionable actions of one person don’t ruin a 50-year-old journalism institution here in Dallas; incite the blogosphere with as many incendiary, and often downright rude and crude, comments as possible; raise my boy to be a Philly Phan while growing up in Dallas.

And I like your idea for the Katies, as I’ve spent more than one drunk night in a cemetery. But that’s just me.

Just a touch off topic: Last night(Sunday 7pm) there was a HUGE police chase down Mockingbird, from Dallas, west, into Highland Park. There was a black Chrysler they were chasing 6-8 Dallas Police cars, Highland Park police, University Park Police, the Dallas Police GhettoBird was up too. The bad guy crashed at Highland Park Village.

I was wondering what he had done to get such an awesome chase going. Pretty awesome to see police cars flooring it on residential streets like that. Quite a scene.

I was at the board meeting where that was explained – the Katies are being held at the 6th Floor because it was offered for free – and given the current economic climate and the past shenanigans, it seemed like the smart thing to do in accepting the offer.

“Although you can always move to the ‘burbs’”, right?

Oh, please. Maybe Glenn broke in your place. No, he’s too much of a wuss.

Sorry about the break-in, but you’re kissing up major league to New Tahoe Victim. Barf!

Get out of your earth-loving sandals and get a real life.

In the meantime, call your doc and get some scrips for sleeping meds and rethink your sorry-ass ideas.

I ain’t name calling, I’m just calling you out on how weak your argument is for a post about a guy who had his wheels ripped off.

Your comments make as much sense as holding the Katie awards at the 6th Floor instead of @ Hillcrest Mausoleum.

well said, dude
i feel for ya and in no way meant to imply that you were responsible for the crime despite what your neighbor may think. i was just ranting on my belief about big trucks being a scourge in and of themselves, which, i guess, i coulda saved for another thread

and as i said, we were robbed in November.
front door kicked in while we were both at work. lost hundreds of DVDs (they left the worthless CDs), a digital camera, PS2, some coins, etc. bunch of junk really. but i couldn’t sleep for weeks

hate to say it’s life in a big city, but chances are if you live in a metropolis such as this one long enough, you’ll be the victim of a crime. sad but true…

although you can always move to the ‘burbs, right? no crime out there, is there, Trey?
