Traveled to Savannah lately?

Having vacationed in Savannah, GA. just a few weeks ago a friend forwarded this to me thinking I would get a kick out of reading it. Someone posted this on Craigslist in the Personal section. I found this to be very entertaining to read so I thought I would share it!

To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last.
Date: 05-27-09, 1:43 A M EST.

I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on my girlfriend and me, threatening our lives.

You also asked for my girlfriend's purse and earrings.

I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.

First, I'd like to apologize for your embarrassment when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket. The evening was not that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.

My girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very evening.

Obviously, you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head, wasn't it?

I know it probably wasn't fun walking back to wherever you'd come from bare footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us again].

After I called your mother, or "Momma" as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what you'd done. Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as four other people's in the gas station on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150 gallons and was extremely grateful!

I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go's, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!]

I then threw your wallet into the big pink "pimp mobile" that was parked at the curb ... after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver's side of the car.

Later, I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cellphone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, although I only used the phone for a little over a day now, so what's going on with that?

Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA's office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible target. The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number, etc).

In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you . . . but I feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider the career path you've chosen to pursue in life.

Remember, next time you might not be so lucky.

Have a good day!

Thoughtfully yours,
Alex

Memories Superhighway

Start Your Engines!
Cruise down Memories Superhighway!
Get in the fast lane! Destination: Yesteryear!


A new website is open! Memories Superhighway. Where collectors and sellers collide! A hopping place and way more than stuffy china and dusty books (although they are there too!)

A quick tour around and you see lots of interesting places to pull off and investigate. New members should stop by the Tourist Center, where the very friendly rules are posted and a site tour as well. Tourists page is all our members, and Scrapbook is currently our photos and albums, but we are working on another concept for that.

Click the tab called Neighborhoods and you'll find some fun groups to join and plenty of places to show off your favorite collectibles, like Grandma's House, Handmade Highway, The Campground, Atomic Avenue and Music Mile to name only a couple, and anyone can start a group, the more the merrier. Most of the groups have a place for sellers to post, and a place for collectors to show off their collections!

Side Roads is the forum, with the usual discussions and other business. The Gazette is our blog, anyone can post, but no selling, must be informative or of interest to all.

BE SURE to visit the Route 66 page for some real distractions, and be prepared to share a story.

Market Mile is designed for online store owners to have a “shop” to post their online inventory, this is not an active store, only a showroom of your online inventory and you must have an online store. Individuals and ebayers can post in the classifieds in forum. And please post your for sale items in the proper places, we wanted seperate places for collectors to feel free to post their collectibles.

It's fast, free, and easy to join, I hope everyone comes by!
