What they took

Apparently you can get a hundred bucks on Ebay for this. We drove over to Pacific Division Station to identify our belongings. They hit the twin bears bedrooms before they were scared out. The neighbor spotted them in a house behind ours and stopped a couple of off duty cops that live in the neighborhood. They caught the getaway car and arrested four from the five they think there were. This and some other stuff was still in the pillowcase from my son's bed. Not much taken really. Teenagers, the cops keep saying. It's a gang from south central that have been working the city for a while.
My banjo was untouched.
The fingerprint guys are coming tomorrow to dust. They used one of our patio chairs to climb into the neighbor's back yard. They politely placed the plant from the trunk in the family room on the floor before opening the trunk.
They politely and carefully moved the bear's surfboard to look in his closet.
No cameras or ipods or iphones to take.

So much for writing anything meaningful tonight.
