Q:
my dog and i went to a nearby river to swim today
i started out like i always do on a nice summer day i take the t-tops out
i set them in my yard like i always have when i will be back soon
they were about 10 feet from the street in my (non)flower bed
i have left them their many times before - no prob
but what i am guessing is that today is trash day and they must have taken them
they were with a brand new 280zx embossed floor mat and they were at least 25 feet from the trash cans - they were even seperated by my driveway
why the **** would they throw my t-tops away?
****it
they were well away from the trash
so i guess i gotta go buy a tarp until i go get my portible garage from storage
anyone want to sell me some t-tops?

A:
They weren't dumped with the rest of the trash. Most likely they were stolen by a garbage truck crewman or someone else. If an item is of any value and it's not secured, then it will get stolen. Let it be a lesson to you. Keep those T-tops secured at all times whether they're on your car or in your house.
A:
Dang, you know the same thing happened when I left my Rolex watches on my lawn while I went for a walk. ;)
They were probably stolen.
A:

trash man stole your t-tops , catch him next week and inform him that you have cotacted the authorites and if the t-tops dont show back up in 24 hours that a warrant will be sworn out against him for theft and then cross your fingers!

I'd be willing to bet they were stolen, our garbage men will never go out of their way to pick something up.

i guaran-frick'n-tee you they were taken and not thrown away. trash men will refuse to take my trash if the top of the bin is more than 45 degrees open, much less go out of their way to walk 25 feet to toss unbagged and untagged items.

I'm not willing to ship anything, but if you want to drive 4 hours to Jacksonville NC I'd sell you a set off a parts car I have for $100. Sorry, tops aren't cheap and I was planning on using them later, but if you're willing to come out here and get them I'll let them go.

well as to my dog he is a 22lb poodle mix and the currents were so strong in some areas that i could barley keep from getting pushed down stream
so at first i put jack(dog) in a big area where the current was slow - he swam arround climed on rocks had a lot of fun
but then he was swimming back to shore and the current got him and down the biggest rapid he goes - oh uhhhh
ok before you think bad about me this giant rapid is only i foot down but it moves fast
i looked just in time to see him go under water and then i started to laugh like hell
he swam to shore slightly shaken but fine

I was going to ask where you live and in what time dimension -
being from a big city we folks know never leave anything lying around even if it is in your sight.
Heck - the whole car gets stolen here - with you in it!
After interrogating the garbage man - try your dog and his friends next.
The other dogs maybe holding the parts for ransome so you'll take them to the river too.
Hey - anythings possible - I cought the cats embezelling from our account and selling my "missing" stuff on eBay.
Well how would you account for $2,000 dollars worth of cat-nip toys?
