OMG! Scumbag Thief Was Here!
Comments (56)I am so sorry first of all about this very unfortunate happening. I need to say that some people can only focus on their own greed and desires rather than take time to think about who their actions affect. I just hate to see anyone or anything suffering because I know how undeserving of misfortune most people are. But, rest assured that these immoral, lowlife, inconsiderate b*stards WILL be judged as will anyone who has a breath in their lungs. I have to say that the idea of putting chips to track plants or id plants does not work the same as dogs because with dogs, they are taken to the pound or humane society to be ID'd first. Plants just taken by a theif would not be brought somewhere to be ID'd so unless you could have a police officer escort you into a suspects domecile and use the laser to ID the plant(s), how likely is that? I think a good idea in order to prevent some theivery would be to organize a neighborhood watch and that way all neighbors are keeping eyes out as well as you so if one neighbor is lying, you would still know. Second of all, please notify EBAY of the orchids you even SUSPECT of being HOT or lifted plants and they will at least keep an eye on the transaction but also notify them and tell them YOUR side of the story- tell them you had orchids stolen and be very specific so that if any items match, ebay can properly monitor and notify you of possible recovery, and do the same with craigslist because if you report the user who is selling those plants and as SHADY as they sound, EBAY should monitor that seller and double check their resources or at the very least hold them up because you can report a seller on ebay and have them reviewed by paypal and/or ebay. keep in mind i am not the brightest person here, but you should check the seller again just to be sure- what if you could recover a plant or 2 or maybe even 8 or 9 out of the 20 or so you lost? I think it is worth it to do all you can in your community and the online community. Also, one last thing you can do is talk to others in your community- see if anyone else has had the same misfortune or if maybe they saw something. you can be your own Nancy Drew and possibly prevent others in your community from having the same misofrtune befall them. Another thing I would do is tell people you filed a police report and the police have done an investigation. Tell them the police have limited their investigation to a few select people and maybe you can make it seem like the pressure is on to catch a theif- check for fishy or shady behavior and maybe scope out anyone you suspect. I think you have one person in mind who is responsible and until you can prove it, the cops will not help. posession is 9/10ths of the law. Maybe you can find out something helpful in any case to prove yourself right or wrong....See MoreUPDATE: Incredible Heirlooms Feb. Swap Partners for Cupids

Comments (12)Oh gosh, kim...I'm so sorry. I know it's meager solace, but I'm thinking that if your dear one lived to 18, she loved you and knew you loved her. What more can we really ask for... Feels kind of odd talking about anything else now, but it's very sweet of you to ask about the concert. Since you did, I'll tell you -- it was BEYOND even my expectations. They're amazing. The band was TIGHT and could still jam so well, so much better than I've ever heard them, in fact, it was not like a pathetic "reunion tour" but more like a real band that just keeps getting better and better with age. Neil Finn is what I've decided to call a poet-composer-rocker, not just a songwriter. Our daughter had a blast, as did the many kids (2nd generation Crowdie fans :)) in the audience. We spent the night basically on our feet, dancing, singing...it was WAY better than 2007, which I thought was magical enough for a lifetime anyway. But these guys are *growing*, in their 50s (the new drummer is younger, though), and doing brilliant, innovative stuff that I think is partly influenced by his own son, Liam Finn, who's a growing musician in his own right (as is his other son, Elroy, but Elroy doesn't have quite the track record yet). I've attached a more traditional CH song from the new album, "Twice if You're Lucky"...it is special to me because I think Neil saw me singing it to DD and hugging her (we were only 6th row--the song's written for Nick Seymour, his bassist, and Nick's first child, born when Nick was either 50 or close to it, upending his life as he'd known it, and Neil has two grown sons, so he's moving onto a new phase as well--never just one line of meaning in his songs) and when he finished (we were all pretty much still seated at that point), and I rose to give him a standing ovation, he looked at me straight on and said "thank you"--my DD can verify it--she said "Neil just thanked you". *sigh* :) And finally, in honor of your departed dear one, here's a song by Neil about his dog Lester, that he wrote when he was *14* years old, and he was afraid Lester was going to die when he'd been hit by a car... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cr3u-qBNrCE Makes me cry every time. No, Neil, "us" humans don't have much dignity... Here is a link that might be useful: from the new album......See More- 12 years ago
