    I wouldn't steal a laptop either. With all the tracking mechanisms and software programs (LOOKOUT mobile security app) in the units today it would take mere minutes to find its whereabouts down to a few meters. And with a cmos boot password it would take an unskilled thief days to figure the darn thing out. Besides, doesn't nearly everyone on the planet own some sort of tablet or laptop anyway. Good luck with the coins and I hope you get them back and the perp too. I'm not a salesman for software but LOOKOUT is free. Install it on your cells,laptops and tablets. If stolen you can log into the LOOKOUT web site and see instantly where your devices are or where there were (when the battery died). The thief knew what to leave behind.

    I wonder if someone watched you leave the bank with a bag and then watched you fool with putting stuff under the seat. Could have been someone that recognized where you were from. Or like they say there are druggies that will quickly rummage through a car for anything. Got a guy on camera one time getting into our car. About an hour after I let the dog out one night. He was too far away to get a positive ID but could watch what he did clearly.
    He just walked up to it and opened the door like he owned it. Checked glove box, opened arm rest. Left arm rest up for some reason. Was in and out in about 10 seconds. Shut the door then looked through the window again to make sure he didn't miss something and then walked away. There wasn't anything to take but had their been he'd have taken all of it. Just happened to not have the car locked.
    Now the vehicles are both in a garage. Would have to break into house to get to them and would be on camera. With so many cameras around it's hard to believe how brave the scum bags are. More likely blissful ignorance.

    I suppose my brazen theft story concerns the ones who swiped two huge sets of hurricane shutters off a house I once owned -- in broad daylight. They showed up about two weeks later on a major, big dollar renovation project on a doctor's house around the corner. Couldn't prove they were mine, though.

    We were also burglarized at that location. An old ring that had belonged to my wife's mother was swiped. My wife spotted it in a well known New Orleans antique dealer's shop a few weeks later. When she commented that it looked like one taken in the burglary, the high society proprietor told her he'd kill her if she ever came in his store again. He knew she knew. The NOPD (Nitwits on Patrol Duty) refused to help.

    That one had a happy ending: He spent four years in one of our fine Louisiana prisons for fencing items stolen from historic graveyards.

    Not all crooks are low-brow drug users. These two were regulars on the society page.

    From the time I decided to take my coins out of my house until the time they were taken, there was no possible way for anyone to see or know that I had them on me, and no way to ascertain what I was out doing for what reason.

    When I arrived at my destination, I only asked for my friend by name, never by subject matter or nature of business. I also never took the coins in either. Just walking in by myself, ask "is John in today?", find out he is off until the next day, then leave to continue my day.

    They were never exposed, never talked about, never even a hint of what I was doing.

    So my gut instinct has been, and will continue to be that a miscreant was just up to no good and karma decided to teach me a little lesson that day.
