Poor violinist!He must feel terrible having lost that valuable violin... Mr Mar had to come back home on his way to the airport yesterday because he had forgotten his passport... Of course it was my fault, how could I ever forget to remind him of that?? Therefore it wouldn't surprise me that the violinist's wife is the one being accused of forgetting to tie the violin to the player's wrist or something similar... and she is the one now in fail because of hiring a hitman, lol!
ReplyDeleteMakes me think of the movie "The Red Violin" did you see it? Excellent movie!
ReplyDeleteI forget things all the time. One thing recently is an antique globe that my sister is taking to "Antiques Roadshow". Now I must drive another 4 hours to her house to bring it!
How SCARY for the Russians... and I'm surprised the U.S. does not have the SAME problem!
ReplyDeleteCan you IMAGINE the nightmare that violinist is having? Holy COW! This is probably why it is best I drive and do NOT take a bus!!! (not that I would EVER have ANYTHING worth that much to leave anywhere!)
Only 6000 for a hit?
ReplyDeleteThat is quite reasonable.
Not that I have shopped around or anything...
