Blessed.

BREAKING NEWS

Holy fucking shit.

Bryant Cook gets a PM about an hour ago from a lady who found the Source from a Google Search of my roommate (Bret Weed). She gives him a number to call.

As it turns out, she found the backpack under her porch this morning (A WEEK LATER), and it had Bret's DCI card in it. She dug a little to find him in this thread: http://www.mtgthesource.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=13852

She lives less than a block from me. Less than a block from where they broke in and stole my cards. The backpack was full.

I got everything back. EVERYTHING. No iPod, but ALL THE CARDS.

I can't even describe how happy I am right now.

Jacked.

Tuesday night, sometime between 11pm and 7am Wednesday, my car was broken into. The thief stole my backpack which contained my legacy deck, and my Elder Dragon Highlander deck. The important things in those decks were: 4 Force of Will (altered to the Fantastic 4, signed) 4 Foil Japanese Daze 4 Foil Tarmogoyf 3 Foil Stifle 4 Foil Aether Vial 6 Foil Signed blue fetchlands 2 Beta Trops 1 FBB Trop 4 Wastelands (1 foil) 4 Mutavaults 2 Foil Japanese Relic of Progenitus 3 Foil Krosan Grips 2 Sower of Temptation and a shit ton of Foil Merfolk. Also, My Captain Sisay EDH deck, with a foil signed Heath, and a ton of good Green and White foils (mostly Legends) along with the artifact mana (all foil) and a Foil Chinese Mindslaver, and a Japanese Gaea's Cradle. I'm out approximately $2000. I'm not excited about it, and as it turns out, it's not covered by insurance. Unless some kid tries to sell it to a game store locally, which is less likely than him throwing it all out, I'll never see those cards again. This is YEARS of investment and trading and tournament wins and all kinds of work, gone in an instant. I'm not looking for handouts. I just want you guys to know, and to warn you to NEVER leave your cards somewhere where you can potentially be victimized like I was the other night. It's one of the worst feelings I've ever had.
