Some sorry people out there, huh?

I've already posted this today, but it belongs here more. I'm selling a '93 Intrepid that I haven't been using (to help a little with the RX-8 down payment ya know)(wanna buy it?:D ). I had it sitting in the corner of the front yard for about 1 week. Coming back home from work Monday, I found that it had been EGGed! I filed the worthless police report, but I'm surely not expecting anyone to be caught. It washed-off fine, but it's the thought that counts.
I lived in a semi-rural neighborhood for 6 years, where the average household income might barely have been over the national poverty level. Never had this kind of problem there.
Now I live in an upper middle class neighborhood. It's been 18 months since I've moved here. The kids are roudier & the grupps are much more plastic & shallow. Now this.

Sometimes I just feel like movin back to "da hood", where people treated me with more honesty (even when they had a bone to pick with me) and respect, and they at the very least honored the golden rule & the ten commandments. Sure there were some bad asses, but they were known by all and greatly outnumbered.

Scottie, beam me up!

 

ENERGIZING...

 

No! I was just kidding!!!

Oh, hello there captain. Well, sorry to report, but there's still not much intellegent life down there! Found some though, on the internet, at this site, uh, www.rxforum.com I think.

Woops! Forgot to turn off my auto post generator. Darn!

Here, lemme jus

 

I am sorry as well. What is it with bumpers getting keyed?

My wife's 2000 Accord recently got it's bumper keyed... 43 times. No kidding. It happened while we were inside a Starbucks.

Luckily my father-in-law in Colorado owns an autobody shop and he'll repaint it for me. He told me that I could expect to pay $500 to have someone else do it.

 

This is all very disheartening. What kind of losers get satisfaction out of doing stuff like this to a person's property?! I've just started getting back into the daily work/errand/shopping/etc. grind with my RX-8, but I feel a little bit of anxiety everytime I leave it somewhere. Hopefully that'll wear off soon (probably after I get my first door ding or scratch ). Ahhh, I keep telling myself it's just a car, but it's my first new baby in 17 years so I want it to stay nice and pristine for at least a little while!

btw, I like your name, grogiefrog!

 

Rod - sorry to hear what happened to your car... makes me sick just thinking about it!
