Ken:
My sympathies! I've been led to believe that, unlike 'Sodom on the
Potomac' or 'Gomora on the Pacific', small Midwestern towns like
Quincy, IL were these safe havens, paragons of virtue and morality,
where doors were never locked, crime was nonexistent, and all the
brides were virgins at the altar.
What a disapointment! I guess I must have been brainwashed by the
liberal media... or, was I intentionally misled by the vast right-wing
conspiracy? Jeez, this is sooooo confusing... ;-)
Anyway, I'm glad that none of your OM/Zuiko gear was stollen. OTOH,
come to think of it, had they taken any of your OM toys, this could
not be classified anymore as a burglary -- we would have to regard it
as a crime of passion, and everyone on this list would be a suspect!
:-) :-)
