Whitewolf, I'm terribly sorry to hear about the theft.

My home also was broken into about a year and a half ago; my things were ransacked, my washer, dryer, and shower were used, and at least one item was stolen. Fortunately this happened while my family and I were away. I never recovered my property, but the police did catch the perp (confirmed by DNA left at my house!) and he is due for sentencing in a few weeks.

As a side note, I would like to point out that there is an off topic board on this website, it's called Sound Off.
