not worth a bad movie

last night we went to see indiana jones. i fell asleep in the middle of a fight scene because it was so ridiculous anyway. it was a terrible movie and i only went because fede put me on a guilt trip saying he had watched so many bad flicks with me so i should put myself through a blockbuster for him.

the only problem is that we biked there, but had to walk back.

yes- the bikes were STOLEN. BOTH. we parked them right outside a pizza shop where it was well-lit and all along the block there were at least 20 other bikes locked to other poles or racks. i guess our screamed "nice and quite new!" so they fcking bastards came along and clipped our cable chains and nicely made away with nearly $1400 worth in bike.

they were definitely professional bike thieves these guys. they must have seen us walk into the theater and wouldn't be out for the next 2 hours. it was right on 2nd ave and there was non-stop foot traffic so these guys must have been pretty darn smooth. now our poor bikes are probably somewhere in brooklyn or queens getting traded away.

we will probably buy replacement bikes but this time we will get huge-ass kryptonite chains (i read that the weakness is in the padlock) + 2 other locks. i also want to get a bike alarm or maybe install some kind of thief crocodile that snaps at anyone who gets near the bike.
