AN ACTUAL CRAIG'S LIST PERSONALS AD

>
> To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night
> before last. Date: 2009-05-27, 1:43 a.m. E.S.T.
>
> I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you
> demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the
> knife on me and my girlfriend,
threatening our lives. You
> also asked for my girlfriend's purse and earrings. I can
> only hope that you somehow come across this rather important
> message.
>
> First, I'd like to apologize for your embarrassment; I
> didn't expect you to actually crap in your pants when I drew
> my pistol after you took my jacket. The evening was not that
> cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason. My
> girlfriend had just bought me that Kimber Model 1911 .45 A
> CP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder
> holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that
> it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head
> ... isn't it?!
>
> I know it probably wasn't fun walking back to wherever
> you'd come from with that brown sludge in your pants. I'm
> sure it was even worse walking bare-footed since I made you
> leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That
> prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to
> come help mug us again].
>
> After I called your mother, or "Momma" as you had her
> listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what
> you'd done. Then I went and filled up my gas
tank as well as
> those of four other people in the gas station, -- on your
> credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 150
> gallons and was extremely grateful!
>
> I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go
> Go's, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his
> day!]
>
> I then
threw your wallet into the big pink "pimp mobile"
> that was parked at the curb ... after I broke the windshield
> and side window and keyed the entire driver's side of the
> car.
>
> Later, I called a bunch of phone sex numbers from your cell
> phone. Ma Bell just now shut down the line, although I only
> used the phone for a little over a day now, so what 's going
> on with that? Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening
> phone calls to the DA's office and one to the FBI, while
> mentioning President Obama as my possible target..
>
> The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long
> chat (I guess while he traced your number etc.).
>
> In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you
> ... but I feel this type of retribution is a far more
> appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you
> well as you try to sort through some of these rather
> immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have
> the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider, the
> career path you've chosen to pursue in life. Remember, next
> time you might not be so lucky.
>
> Have a good day!
Thoughtfully yours,
Alex
