Grrr!

So I went to the movies tonight (for those of you following my exploit's, this one's a programmer/web designer). After the movies, I put the top down in preparation for a nice late-night drive with my date. I'm pulling out of the parking lot, go to put on some tunes; I reach out for the stereo and my hand goes all the way thru the dash! Whaaa? Yup! The stereo is GONE !

It's not so much the financial impact; it was ~$350 Sony head unit. Or the physical damage - the dash facing is pulled up and torn a little. It's the principle of the thing. But in these days of phony 10-Q's and whatnot, principle doesn't mean much.

The positives: I didn't have the car locked, so they didn't hack up the top getting in. The stereo is way cheaper than a top! They also didn't touch the CD changer, or anything else in the car for that matter.

This was at the "Cinedome" at 80 & Greenback.
