Heh.

This one time, I took my brother to the movies and forgot to lock my car doors. Nothing happened, but before we got in the car I said jokingly, "Boy, I hope nobody stole my CD mixes."

With a completely straight face, my brother said, "Oh, that's okay. If they're dumb enough to want your music, they're clearly asking for it."

I mention this just because in the past two days I've been cramming my MP3 player with Loreena McKennitt, bhangra, and after that ... African dance!

I'd love for somebody to steal this thing and listen to it. I can't imagine a lot of thieves have a hard-on for world music.

I've had the interesting experience of having had my car broken into, my (non-mix) CDs stolen, and then walking into the local used music store later that same day to catch one of the thieves trying to sell my CDs -- all but the handful they evidently deemed worth keeping. Pantera and Metallica went bye-bye, Loreena McKennitt and Oingo Boingo I got back. In retrospect I'm amused by their probably disappointment, breaking into a car with Tool and Metallica and A Perfect Circle stickers and finding such a "disappointing" selection (because my fave CDs lived in the wallet that I carried around in my backpack and hence were safely in the house).
