Stolen trunk emblem!!!
So today I go with a friend to a car show/ swap meet at the Long Beach airport. I park my baby in a corner of the lot away from the other vehicles to avoid parking lot rash. Had a good time and met alot of good folks. Anyway, I get back to my car and find that some worthless piece of .... stole the emblem off the trunk of my car 
Needless to say, I'm pizzed. I work very hard to have and keep nice things and to think that some stupid **** would do something like that just burns me up. I just wish I could have caught him doing it. It would have been worth it if I could have just caught him doing it 
Just ain't right to mess with another man's ride.
Thanx for letting me vent. I had to remove all that sticky tape stuff and rub out the area.

I hate they stole your emblem but glad they didn't trash the car doing so.
(eg. using a screwdriver to pry it up and leave you with a gouged decklid.)
