Are you a thief?

I did the same thing.. when I was about 7, my mom took me to work with her and in the break room there was a donation jar. I was hungry, so I fashioned a fishing string out of gum, a string and a paper clip. It worked! I got a drink and a candybar. My mom had the funniest look on her face .. like "how did you do that?" She wasn't too happy when she found out how.

Yeah, my friend got caught as well.. twice. That was a good example of me learning from someone else's mistakes. He's got two strikes now.. one more and he's in jail. He's extremely careful now. :)
