stole my USB memory stick!
Ok, I forgot it in the library yesterday, it's not there anymore and no one handed it in at the info desk.
Seriously, there was important **** on that disk, who would steal something like that? You can get one for maybe 5 $, and it's worth a lot more to me than that.
I really hope it turns up.  |

Oh and... Sopranos is brilliant

I just got my hands on some photos of Vorago dancing at a Schlager festival and some of his sample writings for a fanfiction of the Teletubbies.
Wanna see?  Joke to cheer you up.
Seriously man, that sucks. 
That's the problem with modern technology:
A lot of valuable information put on small data carriers...
and stuff like this happens.
I hope the one who found it brings it back at the library as lost and found. |

Damn, that sucks big time, fortunately You had most of the data backed up.
If none of the data is hmm... compromising, I'd put a note on the library note board and hand over a 10€ or so to the librarians for the finders fee, no questions asked.
Good chances are though that the data is already erased and there's some awful noise that some people call music instead of Your data.
Hope this turns out for the best.
Regards
