Dumb Thiefs
At about 2am PST last night.. I had some thiefs break into my shop.
Thies 3 Got in by way of the roof top mounted cooler ( And its 40 feet off the ground ) Thay removed it and one moran jumped down and found out the hard way it was a strieght 40 ft drop ( Broken leg.. found him in bathroom bandaged up. Open break) Other two get a few dock lines and use them to get it with.. Than one of them mess with a engine left and drops a 300 hp OMC outboard on him self ( found dead there ) The last one smashes open the cash reg and get a whole $10.. ( All the change.. I never leave cashin the shop ) .. In all the struggle to get the dock lines tied up.. the 3rd guy lost his wallet on the roof and didnt even know it.. So other than a wasted day with all the PD .. I lost a totel of $85. ( $10 in change and a busted engine hood( From the OMC 300hp on the 2nd thief

Huh ... maybe they object to the use of questionable language, even when it's obscured with dollar sign S's.

Great to see that you did loose anything except a tick of time & that the Darwin Awards is Alive & Well.

I had to check my calendar because this sounded like an April Fool's joke. No joke, huh? Certainly qualifies for a Darwin Award nomination.
