Matt Neary of Fargo, North Dakota found that a thief had stolen CDs and his wallet out of his truck -- but he did leave a pleasant note complimenting Neary's taste in music:
You have amazing taste in music.
Don't worry about your credit cards and diver's license -- I know I can't use them...after tonight, at least.
Seriously though
Lock your car in the future

If you left your car unlocked and had stuff stolen, well you shouldn't be such an idiot then should you.
Just drive down the street and push your own remote and you'll open a few garages.
I always lock my car but I dont think I have anything in there to steal. If I do, it's buried under soda cans and other miscellaneous trash.

Do you live in Mayberry?
Any Garage Door Opener built in the last 18 years uses an digitally encoded signal (i.e. a rolling code), and not just s specific frequency like they did in the stone age.
Very handy for foreign travel when you have passports with you but don't want to leave them in a tent or take them onto the beach or carry them round medieval towns.
Takes the SatNav, too.
Why don't car makers provide a sercure locker?
I had this happen. A friend grabbed something out of my car. The lock had been broken in the past, and if you didn't close the door properly, the lock would half pop up again.
Somebody broke in and took the only thing they could find - a single cd. They left a similar note, stating I 'should really lock my car properly'.
Smug bastard got his. Working next door to a school, I hazarded a guess it was a student. Sure enough, the handwriting was recognized, the kid got ratted, and I got my cd back.
Just like it's a womans fault when she gets raped because she's too stupid to wear a chastity belt.
i like how the theif left a note though...
that he never met!
