When I sat down in the front seat of the cab, I neglected to remember I had my faithful IIIxe in my jacket pocket, which is reknowned in my household for having stuff fall out mysteriously. Anyways, I heard a clunk and a few scrapes only to realize a few hours later that the sound I heard wasn't something wrong with the seat, it was my palm falling out....

I called the cab company, and after a lot of troubles, I came to the conclusion that the cabbie must have pawned it, the small tipping issue I imagine.... I had gotten it in december of 2000, and even after the accidental power surge that made it go wacky, and all the rough handling, to be lost in a cab....
