edward fox's reality

So I attempted to do an abstract-yet-related subject for this blog entry. Was it successful?… Find out, by the end of the entry.
New York was rather interesting. However, I’m going to simply fill everyone on in what happened during the weekend, and in the past, that I didn’t know about until after the fact.

First, let’s start with the fact that my car was broken into on the North Lake College campus of the DCCCD schools in Irving, TX. Was that too descriptive? My precious Escort X50 was stolen I got it at a great price since I had an employee discount when I worked at Best Buy, and I did not take a picture of the serial number. I’m doing my own investigating which will pursue a number of different routes a thief could take with his newly acquired merchandise. I figure I have about a 40% chance of getting back my radar detector. I already replaced my window. I was going to take pictures of it, but forgot.

So that was the tragedy that happened this weekend, but apparently, there was another tragedy that happened a few months ago.

A shooting occurred south of Rock Island (what I call “Zone 1″ of 5 “wealth zones” in Irving, with “1″ being the least gross income per capita, and “5″ being the most) at an apartment complex. My friend apparently knew the guy who shot someone, but it was unintentional. He was shooting his gun into the air and somehow managed to shoot and kill someone else in the apartment complex. The complex is now shut down… Amazing. Makes me wonder, the whole, 6 degrees thing. You are connected to everyone by only six steps… really makes you wonder. Really.

This entry has nothing to do with New York, or my life, really, or to San Marcos. It was just one of those fillers. An entry with lots of shiny pictures [and such] will follow within a few days. I have a week’s worth of schoolwork to catch up on now…
