First night in Philly; almost mugged :(

Yep. I'm here in Philadelphia and I'm leaving a friend's apartment when a guy comes up to me and tries to steal my ITouch. Blargh :( Luckily I got away from him after being forceful and after I got away from him, I joined up with some construction guys. They were nice ^.^
 
Where were you? I'm trying to figure out a neighborhood that is bad enough to mug people, but pussy enough to back away when someone else is forceful.

Philly is like any large city, best not be alone and best be careful at night in all but the highest trafficked areas.

19th between Chestnut and err...starts with an S.

I think he was just insane.
 
Good job getting away safe and sound. I don't venture into Philly too often (live in South Jersey suburb) but I've always had to think of it as kind of a 'toy city' compared with Manhattan (where I lived for 6 years). Still as Jaroksays, it is a city and it pays to be careful.

P.S. will be heading back to the Franklin Institute for one more taste of ST in IMAX soon!

Ya know...just the other day Alidar was saying how he really wanted an iTouch... :shifty:

>.>...Hmmm...Really?
 
That's funny because I was just in Philly myself and was taking a walk. I saw this guy with an iTouch and I went over to see it closer up because I thought it looked really nice. Guy got all freaked out and started pushing me around when I asked if I could see it. Then, after he had his fun, he ran away, leaving me in the dust with only a bruised ego and no better understanding of the iTouch.
 
I'm going to stick a fox on you when I get home CD or possibly a skunk. BTW where the hell have you been?

The cats will eat it.

I've been busy acting in a Robert Rodriguez movie.
:p

They will eat a fox?

Lucky you. I want to do something on Sunday with you when I get home...GAAA! that sounded wrong. You know what I mean!

Not my fault...Oh yeah the guy hugged me. I wonder how many diseases I got. Blech.

I was just being friendly!

Yeah, well now you owe me 15 bucks for a new pair of headphones >.>
