Funny Story

Okay, so I just have to share this...

we were on our way back from the grocery store. We were stopped at a light, lots of traffic, people, and police traficing the signal. Well, as we were waiting to go we saw this kid messing with a lock on a bike chained to a tree. My room mate was like, "hey, I think that kid is trying to steal that bike!!!" So we watched him get the bike loose from the tree and start to take off with it. This was too small for the bike and had touble getting onto it. We could not believe what we were seeing...all those people around, in brod daylight, with police just around the corner in eye sight and the kid was stealing the bike. One of the guys, Zack, stuck his head out the window of the car and asked the kid if he was stealing the bike. To which the kid made faces at him. Zack told the kid to cool down and asked him if it was his bike. The kid said that the bike was an old man's who sells stuff around there. Then we watched as the kid rode off down the street. I know it is not right, but it was hilarious. Poor old man, but we were cracking up just watching this little kid steal a bike and we couldn't do anything about it (and neither did anyone else). Made our day (amongst other things).

The boy was probably 9-12 years old. He was obviously a street kid. I know it is actually not really funny, but it was very unexpected. And how our guy in the car was acting, it made for a lift to a interesting day.
