What Goes Around Comes Around (Eventually)

We don't really watch our backs anymore. From Halloween of 2003 on and most of 2004, we expected revenge for our actions and lived in a state of minor uncertainty. You see, on that faithful Halloween eve, we took it upon ourselves to TP (cover with toilet paper) our friend's Blake and Christi's house. It worked like a charm and days later the truth was revealed, much to their surprise. Of course, we played the story out on this very blog. More than that though, revenge was declared - revenge that, until now, had not been brought to fruition.

Just tonight I walked into our living room and noticed something strange about our wall - it was missing something quite obvious - namely two big metal stars - one about 4 feet across. They seemed to have vanished and we had no idea when, where or how. Our first thought was our friendly neighbors Blake and Christi, still reeling from the toilet paper episode. I called Blake and he played dumb (not a difficult task) but succeeded in convincing me that he knew nothing. A mystery. We called other people who have keys to our home. Nothing. Should we change the locks? The night took a dark turn as we felt a little uneasy about our security (and Mark hacked our previously defunct alarm system). Who the hell would steal stars? Maybe Bootsy did it.

That of course ended when I checked email and got a message from Blake about a new post on his blog and Christi's blog. To return our favor in full, he had obliged with a post - just for us entitled "To My Good Friends Lee, Mark and Sachi". To this post was attached this picture:

So yes, round one is complete - and it only took four freaking years.
