“Daddy, I have to move my body.”
– Lily, during car ride when we were listening to some exciting music

You may or not recall or have read about it either here or on the major news networks, but I had my bag stolen off the MSP airport ramp a couple weeks ago.  Bummer.  Having stuff stolen is lame and feels icky and intrusive.  Even weirder, though?  Flipping through the photos you took that day and realizing you caught the guy IN THE VERY ACT OF STEALING YOUR BAG!

(you will have to click on this to full size, then look in the bottom right.  You can clearly see a guy with a blue latex glove reaching down for my bag, the brown thing in the photo.)

(this, believe it or not, narrows the culprit down to an aircraft groomer.  nobody else uses latex gloves; plus, I think he brought down all the trash behind him)

I feel so violated.

I don’t have a review of this book.  But I would very much like to. Credit to my boss Andy for telling me such a book existed.

    I have never heard of this book. It’s amazing the things that husband of mine knows.

    Did you file a report at the airport? Perhaps the blue-gloved guy can be identified. Probably just “doing his job” in removing a suspicious item. I was thinking you could send the photo to the local media, but it might just end up playing the unrelenting airport reminder (in a calm British accent) about not leaving your bag unattended, no matter what anyone says. ? (
    Maybe they have a Lost & Found of suspicious items? Sorry this happened.
