Most of my visitors here are unaware of my experience from last year.

On the evening of September 11th, 2008, someone robbed my residence and set fire to the place.  This happened late at night and the fire was extinguished sometime in the early a.m. the next morning.

I lost years and years of work, personal items, actual cash, and and even things that were not mine.  The suspect stole computer hardware of mine, the backups, and also a business partner’s equipment — all worth thousands of dollars.

My roommate also had excessive damages and losses.  Fortunately for him, he did recover some electronics that were stolen and sold to a pawn shop in a nearby town.

The suspect was captured about a month later, and he is now in trial this week.  I have faith that justice will be served.  I just hope that he changes his ways.

I’ll keep you posted!
