Shake it off and go buy some more tools. If you stay pissed, the terrorists win. Plus you'll be miserable. Bad enough they stole your tools, don't let them steal your happiness.

You should be a therapist Scott. That's why I posted this, because I knew my brothers would know how to make me feel better. The tools are definitely replaceable but it's gonna be pricey. I will have to start with the essentials and just start all over collecting bits and pieces here and there.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Sorry To Hear This, Gary.

Reminds Me Of A Time "Many Years Ago", When, As A Poor Student, Someone Stole The Battery Out Of My Car. I Slept In The Car All Nite After I Bought A New Battery Several Days Later, Just Waiting For Them To Come Back. Of Course, I Only Hurt Myself, As They Never Showed Up.

Grab Yourself A Good Stick & Beverage & Try To Forget About It, My Friend.

Sorry to hear that, Gary.

Let me know if there is anything I can do - even if it's just a shoulder to lean on or an ear to listen.

Check local pawn shops. They are required to get ID so you can have the thieves busted if you find the tools.

Gary, stake out Craigslist for tools that may match yours.
If you see something that is suspicious, contact the local lawman.

Its a stretch, but I have had friends recover automotive tools this way.

Also, if you have the time, peek in the local pawn shops and notify them if you see something that is yours. In most cases they are bound by law to surrender stolen goods.
