Brother's luck strikes again!!!

Well as many of you know my brother's twin turbo 300zx burned to the ground a little while ago. He recently decided to buy a twin turbo Audi S4 as a replacement.

He was at a holdiay party for his company at a Mariot in northern Jersey off rt 10. Someone punched a hole in the door under the lock, broke the ignition, stole the car and stripped the headlights off of it, stole the laptop and the backpack in the trunk. Thats all that we know as of now. He did have this car fully insured so he only pays the 500 deductible but how much does this suck?? His wonderful luck is wringing him dry...

Tom

Sorry to hear Tom. Hope Dan gets something else that's equally amazing. At least he's okay.

That is a string of bad luck...

That drives me really MAD.
Six months ago, my sister called me from her cell like 10.35pm telling me there is someone hiding near my car (she was coming home but saw someone, was afraid and kept a close watch at a distance). I grabbed my pump, went like hell on the building stairs, and there they were!!! a couple of Syrian workers about to do something to my baby .. they were so afraid that they froze next to my car not knowing what to do. Then they started running like hell... while I shot two shots at them only missing one.... ... I SWEAR !!!
This is legal over here...

Parental Advisory: Don't do this anywhere else in the World and especially in the U.S.A

It's legal to do that. Defense of your stuff is perfectly legal, even if it involves a pump action.
