And now a public service announcement from the thief who will be robbing your house this weekend:

It’s going to be hot this weekend, the weather report says it’s going to be over 100. It’s the perfect time for me to rob you. You’ll be going to the coast or to the river or to the pool. You’ll leave your windows open because you always do. I’ll hang around down on the corner, and wait for you to leave. Then I’ll sneak around to the back of your house and slip through the window, probably your child’s room.

To find out what this thief is going to do next, keep reading! Then go close your windows. Then drop your own rant, confession, or words of advice into the I, Anonymous Blog—where we let just about anyone in. (To our detriment.)

Bang bang, choo-choo train, let me see you shake that thang. Wm. Steven Humphrey is the editor-in-chief of the Portland Mercury and has held the job since 2000. (So don’t get any funny ideas.)
