The $250 Blog Post
It had been about two weeks since my last post and I was desperately trying to come up with a topic. Well, I’m happy to say that while a few of us were over at Kipp’s last night, a topic worth posting about was born. I decided to leave around 1 am, and made my way to my car, surprised to notice that there was broken glass all around the rear tire.
“Strange”, I thought, since I didn’t remember parking in a big pile of glass. Then I moved my head up a bit and saw that my rear left door window was broken. “Strange”, I thought since I didn’t remember my window being broken when I left the car.
Jason and Cheryl were leaving at the same time, and when it finally hit me, all I could say was, “My car got broken into”. After repeating this a couple times since neither of them would believe me, I took a look inside to see if anything was missing. I’m pretty anal about leaving nothing in plain view for that exact reason, and this time was no different. There was nothing taken - just the broken window.
I decided to walk down the road to see if there were any other cars that suffered the fate I had. Sure enough Todd’s rear left vent window fell victim as well. The glass was still intact, but completely spidered with a small hole visible. It looks like the culprits used a pellet gun as the weapon of choice for their crime spree.
This morning I called Speedy Glass to get an estimate and make an appointment. It was actually not as expensive as I was thinking it was going to be, but I can definitely think of of better things to do with $250. On the bright side, I finally had something worth posting about.

Boooo vandals suck.
Weren’t you and Todd on the same Scene It team? Maybe Kipp skipped out early to take out the loss on your cars.
That’s an excellent point, but Kipp was on my team. However Jason wasn’t, and there was a controversial call at one point in the game that may have pushed him over the edge.
That sucks about the car man but its much better then spending nearly 800 bucks on a window when they smashed out mine in my Avalanche
Holy, Rene! Eight hundred bucks for a window. That’s brutal. Hopefully that one was an insurance claim.
