My relentless pursuit of the guy who robbed me: A thief broke into Amanda Enayati's car. She used Craigslist, a dating site, MySpace and a fast food joint to track him down.
NucleophilicAttack, you consistently post the best stories here! Kudos sir, you win the internet (in my mind).

Not quite understanding why the guy didn't just dump stuff in the trash. I mean, on the ground at the train station? In a neighbor's yard near the place where he stole from? Definitely up for a Darwin award.

My favorite part:

hat I missed at first amid my drama of violation and vengeance, was the remarkable displays of kindness I experienced from absolute strangers -- people who retrieved scraps of paper from lawns, picked up piles of discarded cards from a dirty train station floor, drove miles to restore someone's belongings, searched Facebook to find me. If I were mathematically inclined, I might even observe that in my tale, the good guys outnumbered the bad guys, by about 10 to one.
