That's just it, it wasn't taking up any space. It was right next to my rig...on a packing tarp that is 50' x 100', and there were only four of us packing on that particular tarp. See, it's not part of my nature to automatically assume the worst about people. However, after asking loudly for 15 minutes about my helmet and then finding it under the folds of a canopy that these two were packing set my blood boiling. I kept my Irish temper in check because I honestly don't want to make things uncomfortable for anyone. If I see them out there again, I'm going to keep a close watch on them and let everyone else know to be wary of them as well. I mean, for carp's (the fish) sake, the helmet has a sticker on it that nobody else at the DZ has. It says, in big, bold letters, "BE NOT HALF-ASSED". And I even cooked it to fit my noggin. Not that it would matter to potential thieves. Bottom line is that I will now have to keep my eyes peeled for snatch artists. heh.

I suppose I should start a new thread for this question.

Listen, you have to stay true to what you believe in, especially when it comes to protecting your friends from their own folly...and drug-infatuated repeat offenders.

See, the thing is, I wanted to scope the whole thing out before I made even more of an ass out of myself than I was already doing by lumbering around asking if anyone and everyone if they knew where my helmet was. I wasn't thinking clearly, because I was tring to make to 50 that day, and I wasn't sure if I'd have the energy after the partying that ensued on Saturday night.
