It would be really helpful for us Future OBBs who are looking for unique vendors. :D Fri, 15 Jan 2010 14:00:39 +0000 http://offbeatbride.com/2010/01/offbeat-local#IDComment52187831 http://www.woodtv.com/dpp/news/local/grand_rapids/3-caught-for-GR-burglary#IDComment52060419 I live about a block where these robberies have been taking place. My house was robbed back in July and I haven't heard anything from the police yet...I am just hoping that the people who robbed my house are the ones being caught in these current crimes. What devastated me the most, is that my laptop and external hard drive were stolen, along with decades of photos and personal documents. I would have let the thieves keep the electronics if I had just been able to get all those files back. I had been given a shotgun shortly before the robbery, but it wasn't at my house yet. I am so glad that it wasn't, because it would have been under my bed, and the robbers were in my bedroom. If that gun would have been stolen, every time I would hear about a shooting on the news, I would be worrying that it was my gun used. I would feel just awful, even not knowing. Plus, my house and these were targeted while we were away at work, so a gun would be useless anyways. Since then I've gone and adopted myself a wonderful Belgian Malinois, who makes his presence quite known in the neighborhood, and I've installed an alarm system. I feel for those who have lost property and important items, it's not fun.

No one complained. Thu, 14 Jan 2010 18:31:33 +0000 http://www.woodtv.com/dpps/news/strange/isd-teacher-writes-f-word-on-board-_3186467#IDComment52057723
