.... finding out on Sunday that a spoke is broken on your bicycle tire,
and that you'll have to get it fixed; and that in the meantime, you don't
have any transportation....

.... finding out today that out of all of the bikes in the East Campus
basement, someone has *stolen* your bicycle wheel (the one with the broken
spoke)....

.... realizing that it was your real wheel, and that it's going to cost
non-trivial amounts of money to replace....

.... deciding to call the CP's and report it, on general principles, and 
then waiting *45* minutes at EC desk, waiting for patrolman to show up.

						Argh!!!!!
