Memike Has An A-body

Mike,

After following your saga on that "other" Val, and all that you went through to complete the transaction, I was angry that you did not get it.

Why angry? Because regardless of the times we felt taking the law into our own hands and rightfully retrieving "your" car was the way to go, you resisted and believed in the justice system to do the right thing. You did all that was right, attended when requested, filled out all the proper papers and had not only the blessing but the help of the registered owner. You put your faith in the system, and like most here, assumed that in the end, it would all be well. We all believed that the story would have the fairy-tale ending it was destined to.

Of course, it was not to be. Once again, the justice system let down the victim, and protected the accused. And even though I am not American, here in Canada it is no different.

When you wrote the final chapter, we could all sense the despair and finality of the saga. The "little guy" (me included in this group) got dumped on. Again.

To be able to contribute in a small way to change this outcome, has made me feel that us "little guys" aren't so little after all.
