To the fine young gentleman who smashed my car window, stole my CD player, then — as a coup de grace — randomly poured a bottle of Coke all over my back seat: thanks, asshole!
A special bonus thank you for prying open the (non-functioning) air conditioning vents. I wasn’t aware that either (a) air conditioning vents were so valuable on the black market or (b) the quickest way to the CD player was through the AC.

Ack! I've experienced the CD player theft and consequent dashboard destruction, but the coke on the backseat is something truly special. Pobrecito...
