Yup, I'll be faxing all the pawnbroker shops in the next few days.  And here I 
was thinking that I would never use the fax function in 10.3!  And I'll be 
getting some cops that I know socially to keep an eye on recovered goods 
records.

My emptied wallet was found around the corner from here this morning.  Damn, 
that was my last $100 so now I'm left with $3.35 to my name and a bloody empty 
stomach! These kids are bloody experienced, even the hidden compartments that 
nosey girlfriends, etc, normally don't find had been gone through.   

Rather miffed about losing my camera though... now I can't take any photos of 
the ripper grazes that I've got on my right knee and hand from when I fell over 
whilst chasing the car down the road. 

Moral of the story...   don't leave your PowerBook on your desk at night, 
always take it to bed with you!  My geekiness/nerdiness paid off, I always take 
my PowerBook to bed at night (the cat to, but he always runs away as soon as he 
can).  :-)

I've been wondering all day if these kids will ever come back now that they 
have seen the masses of Mac stuff that I have in this house.  But then again... 
 I'm 6 foot tall, 118kg...  big ugly fat bastard, particularly unattractive 
when running across the front yard at 3:30am in nothing but old underpants.  
Being chased by this huge pissed off pale bloke who's bare skin hasn't seen 
sunshine in many years must have had them at least a tad concerned.

Would have been a classic for Funniest Home Videos...  if I had the whole 
iSight thing set up I would still have lost my camera, but could have won a new 
replacement one with the video.

>>Hi Phil,

>>I don't know if this is any help, maybe, maybe not,

>>often, and maybe there will still be images on the
>>camera's memory that can ID it to you and that they

>>it, its not something the average criminals keep as a

>>hardly surprising given it was worth bugger all.

>>Best of luck. A friend of mine also had his wallet and
