If a seersucker suit is what he used his $20 bucks for, I say that guy who robbed him did us a favor.

Indeed. He should have bought two of them so he could throw both away.

Why does he care who the thief was? He should donate the money to his favorite charity.

Not satisfied at receiving $500, he is now seeking the thief so he can collect reparations.

Jesus said that those who cannot forgive, will not be forgiven.

Right.

This guy not only doesn't forgive, he doesn't forget.
He must be a real joy to be around.

I remebered swiping my dormmates beer from the fridge 30 years ago.
Will I be stalked if I send him a keg of Sam Adams?

No person above the age of two has any excuse for wearing a seersucker suit, unless you are in a theatrical production of an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel. Did he also pick up a straw boater while he was shopping?

Nevermind - cover your eyes. It's the latest in Asian fashion:

Isn't that sharp? And you're always ready for "action" - let's see how the boys look as they cruise the park:

Who can resist that sort of studliness?

"...owned and operated a successful masonry business..."

This guy sounds like he is a few bricks short of a full load!

``My wife doesn't want me to, but I'm going to find out who it is.''

This guy should get over it, take the 20 bucks and invest in some Viagra then chase his wife around the bedroom, the universe would be better served.

It sounds like his life got better after being robbed.

He should track him down and thank him.
