yikes - i guess i'd better not make anyone mad on here (or more mad than i already have....
)
one word: karma. no matter who it is, what they've gotten away with or for how long, karma will get them eventually. that's how i try to live my life - i have a bad temper, so it's taken me many long years to keep it under control. and it's gotten me in trouble before too, which is the best lesson.
even though it's your pride and joy, just remember that it's only 'stuff'. stuff can be replaced or fixed. if your best friend was attacked, or your mom was threatened, then i'd say hunt 'em down and beat them just to the point of almost not seeing a tomorrow. but stuff is stuff - fix it, be more aware of who may be acting suspicious, and let it go.
a good example: my boss has a black audi a8. i noticed one morning when passing it on my way into the parking garage that it had a HUGE dent in the back - right where the A8 badge goes. i talked to him about it, and his 16 year old son went to a club in detroit that weekend, and said it happened in the parking lot. i asked if he was ready to kill his kid, or sue the club (not that it would do much good), and he just looked at me and said calmly, 'why? what good would either of those things do? it's just a car, and can be fixed. i'm just glad my son is ok. i'll just make sure he doesn't take my audi to downtown detroit anymore.'
