I'm Putting My Car On A Charm Bracelet

USA Today reported that Oakland Raiders receiver Javon Walker was robbed of $3,000 cash and $100,000 in jewelry on June 16. Yes, you read that correctly...$100,000 in jewelry.

In order to look comparably rich, I've decided to have my house made into a necklace.

I'd hate to see how your migranes affected you, then! :-)

Truly revolting!

I hope you're feeling better.

Truly ridiculous...what a sad state of affairs that a goofball like that is actually admired by many in this crazy culture. If he wasn't, he wouldn't wear all that bling.

I hate to say that he was asking for it, as nobody should be the victim of a crime, but really, who in the hell carries that much cash around? And the jewelry? Puh-leeze. Between the cash and the b,ling, he had ON HIS PERSON close to what I make in a year. That is SO crazy!

Why a person would walk around with that much jewelry on, (and not on a red carpet or anything!) is beyond me.

Ouch!!! I'd say you would definitely be a stay-at-home Mom then!!!

I'm sure he had everything insured... Now he can go shopping and get all new!! How fun that will be;)) As the old saying goes:

"There's always a silver lining behind every cloud."

Have a 'rich' and fulfilling day;)

This is why I watch soccer. And also the fact that those Italian players are hot.

I'd have to put my car on a chain and put the other $90,000 of goods on layaway all over town.

Considering how big some of that pricey bling can be, having a pendant the size of a house isn't too far off.

I buy my jewelry from the $1 store.. I bet I could get a ton with $100,000.

PS. You kill me.

What makes me wanna yack is the fact that nobody will steal my car or my house so I could claim the bloody insurance money.

That's the only way I'd ever see 100K in jewels.

I feel broke. And poor. But proud that I don't waste money. All at the same time :)

So, was it like a mugging? Was he wearing it all at the time? How does one do that?

And does he know how many poor people could EAT or get VACCINATED for $100,000????

Imagine what that $100,000 could pay for, for ordinary folks like us. Like my kid's 4 years of college... or at least MOST of it. Wow.

It could be a charm necklace with a master bedroom charm, a powder room charm, a backyard charm. You get the idea.

Yeah, he was a walking billboard just screaming "rob me!"

I know crime doesn't pay, but they sure picked the right guy now, didn't they?

I hope you're feeling better!

So I'm betting the robbery took a while. I mean it must take a while to take off all that jewelry--at least til the next morning ;)

This is the funniest short post I think I've ever read. Be sure to get the chimney removed first so it doesn't poke you in the eye.

You're welcome. I'm always glad to be helpful.

I don't understand how people can spend that much on something to WEAR. I don't think I'd be very good at that.
