Thievery Corporation

Yeah, so Iris totally stole my thunder, but Matt and I sure did find a bag full o' stealing tools yesterday night. Of particular interest to me were the bolt cutters and mini-crowbar (in retrospect, I kind of regret not pilfering that from the bag and keeping it for myself, but that's probalby some kind of crime or something), but the bag also included gloves, a black hat, a black mask, a pen-knife, an X-acto knife, what were presumably bike-lock keys, and assorted small tools like wire strippers, needlenose pliers and some small screwdrivers (which I really should have kept, considering).

I turned the lot into the police, where the guy informed me that these were "breaking and entering tools." Well, thanks for the tip, Detective Moustache, I never would have figured that on my own.

Anyway, as some of you may know, I had a bicycle stolen a little while ago, so it came up amongst us that this was some sort of karmic retribution for that, which promted the following exchange, which is going to go in the quote book as soon as I get back to the office:

Matt: I guess it was just good karma.

Me: Yeah, still, if this was the guy who stole my bike, I'd rather hit him in the face with the bolt cutters.

Matt: I think that would ruin the good karma.

Me: But he's a thief.

Matt: Still, it can't be good karma to hit someone in the face with bolt cutters.
