LJ Sunday - Thieves among us!!!!! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

It appears this post, this site and mainly its members applied enough pressure in the right direction to start a chain of events that ended this afternoon with an apology and the return of my peddles.

I don't really know what else to say except that its much easier to make mistakes, than to come out and take responsibility for them.

Don't forget to focus your anger in the right direction and email your thoughts to the D'bags on the DFG commission http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...ad.php?t=11695

THANKS

SWEET! Takes more balls to man up than to run/hide... good for him.

(still agree that a beating would tattoo the lesson in a little better)

Glad to hear you got back the drive. BWE -->

Stoked you got your peddles back!

Appreciate diverting attention to larger issues, and don't need to know the who/what/when of the evident "fessing up". Would, however, welcome clarification, i.e., did the culprit him/herself come forward in contrition and, if so, did this site/blog alone cause the pressure that brought him/her forward, or was a chat with John Law also influencial?

IMHO, if the person who took your drive had enough integrity to come forward and apologize to you directly, that is quite admirable, as is your effort to tamp down the flames and get on with things. While seemingly rare, "happy endings" of this sort are truly worth celebrating.

WTG!

Good Deal......I'll tell you this much if I see that POS sitting on the triangle again eyeballing the kayaks again i'll set him straight. He's still a dirtbag and it took the fear of getting caught to own up.
