Well anyway, at 11:45pm I hear metal rattling noises and at first don't think much of it, sometimes people get their mail late. But then I kept hearing it so I peaked out my window. Yep, two dudes somehow fully opened the entire box (can normally only do it with a master key) and one of them keeps checking if people are around.

So I called 911, got connected to the sheriff (I guess this city I live in now doesn't have a PD). Literally within two mins of talking to the dispatcher there's a helicopter circling overhead and then a minute after that, the responding deputy calls my cell phone asking if I have any additional info.

Then a minute later they're already at the mailbox outside my window checking it out. I ended up going out there to talk to them and at first they thought it was just a parcel box that had been broken into, but I said no it was the whole thing, and so the second guy checked and of course the entire door swung wide open (the entire door connecting all the boxes). "Oh wow, this is crazy!" (Side note, how do these guys not know how USPS-owned cluster boxes work?)

So I tell them I'm not usually used to a quick response like this because when I used to live in downtown San Jose I'd call to report a crime I was witnessing and the police literally never came at all. So one of them responded "uhhh yeah we do things differently here."

Lol.

should get interesting. a crime on postal property usually means that the postal office police need to get involved, and they supersede sheriff's. know some people in postal trucking.. many good stories of weigh station sheriff's trying to stop/search the trailers to prove their authority, and the postal police outright shut the weigh station down for hours on end to check the trailer out...

Traded in & got ‘22 Toyota Highlander XSE. I needed back seats to put the baby to help drop off baby to parents to baby sit, instead of making her do it all the time. Plus family hauler for the weekend. Of course, I didn’t need to trade in my BRZ & bought HL. That was the plan for a while, but having extra debt & extra bills will put us into financially tight plus not able to save for emergency isn’t smart idea.


My wife told me, I look so sad trading my BRZ. But gotta do what I gotta do for my family. I’ll def buy 86/BRZ again when used car market calms down (2~5yrs?).

Don’t worry, I’ll still be a Mod here clean up classified section, other spam thread & temp ban Tcoat once a while lol

i'm not going to say i told you so.

i'm pretty sure i already said you were going to do this a while back.

I don't know how many follow UEFA Champions League or European football for that matter. But F.C Barcelona, one of the biggest clubs in history, just got relegated to the Europa League, not to say it isn't an important tournament, but is just considered lower tier. They are just not doing good at all this year. Is not looking good for the foreseeable future either.

i went through way more pages of this thread than i ought to have. it's like flipping through a photo album.

i thought it was around either the pregnancy announcement, or the birth announcement, but never found it.

next car your family is going to buy is an suv for your wife, because the wrx is too sporty and fun for a boring but average family with 2 car seats to fit into the back.

I wish they made this. I'd like to haul my kayaks and occasionally lumber. I hate not having a vehicle up to the task. This would be perfect. Assuming it largely drives like a twin still.
