To the jerks who violated Greased Lightning last night...

yes, you read that right. Some jerks broke into my family's 2008 Silver Dodge Calibur last night. The car's name is Greased Lightning. It must have happened between the hours of 3 am and 5:37 am. Mom discovered what happened at around 7am when she went to get Justin something for his lunches. My younger brother is involved in a day program at the COVE up in Paradise.

So this afternoon I got the idea to ask him to put on his facebook wall on 12/26 "... STAND DOWN MAJOR WAYNE D BRIGGS, YOU ARE RELIEVED" Because grandpa Briggs died on the day after Christmas in '96.
