Snuh, out of 6.5 robberies (the .5 being the guy who was "just joking"...
the police found him as "funny" as I did), I have never once claimed I
"thwarted" any of them. Not only was I under orders to hand over the money
when prompted, but some of those guys were *nuts*! In order:
First two robberies were the same guys, a year apart. (Easy to spot; same
voice, same skin tone on the hands. They sprang for a Halloween mask on the
second one, a "Grey".)
Next robber walked in through a door I'd just locked (and don't think I was
quiet when asking my manager about THAT; apparently he hadn't thought to
mention the damage a burglar had done to the doorframe) and started robbing
me. (Real nutcase, shouting and screaming at me. Was arrested for drunk
and disorderly before the warrant was out on the robbery.)
Next one left me flinching for a few months, since he responded to "Is there
anything I can get you?" with "Yeah, all the money in the register."
Next was the guy who was dumb enough to leave a perfect set of fingerprints
on the large cups atop the soda fountain. (I wish all robbers were so
obliging.) I locked the doors, took the first ten cups off the top (without
touching the one he'd replaced) and put them on the counter for
fingerprinting.
Next was the .5; about the time I surreptitiously pressed the silent alarm,
he laughed and said he was "just joking" before walking out. If I'd had
something heavy to hit him with...
Then came the guy with a gun. Okay, it turned out to be a starter pistol
when they apprehended him. Not that it makes a difference under Texas law.
That's all of them, Snuh, and not a single "thwart" among them. So now
you've accused me of TWO things I've never done. Going to go for the
trifecta and make up something else to accuse me of doing?
Oh, wait, you already did: LYING.
You're entitled to form your own opinion, Snuh, not invent your own facts.
Go back and reread what I actually posted before you make yourself look even
more stupid than you already did.
Yours with a much better memory than YOU seem to have,
The honest,
Wanderer
(P.S.: Seriously, "thwart"? You need some new comic books.)
