"How do we feel about Ithaca? It's hard to say because it leaves a sad taste when something like that happens,"

Ithaca is the City of Evil.

Yet another reason I’m glad I’ve skipped the Ithaca Festival since around 2001 when it started accelerating downhill.

"We're very careful with money."

No, you weren't, and as a direct result of that, now it's gone. And instead of stating that you've learned not to be so naive as to leave $700 in a basket on the street and turn your back on it and you'll be more careful next time, you just keep saying that you're "sad."

GROW THE HELL UP!

In Ithaca that’s just welfare for thieves.

1.3 million folks in Maine.
I've been there. VERY small. I was on a tour and on the Sunday morning I asked about the Catholic Churches and their services.
The city we were in had ONE Catholic Church and there was ONE service: 11:00 A.M. THAT was it. Kind of surprised me because I am used to traveling around Europe and there are churches EVERYwhere. Broadened MY horizons, about my own country.

The difference is the European cathedrals, though numerous,
are ill-attended.

Wherever I travel I have an around-the-neck, tucked-into-the-blouse/shirt money (and, if necessary, passport) carrier. I've never been robbed, purse-snatched or pickpocketed.
Found the carrier in Europe. Great stuff.

I've been all over the world except Australia, South America and the Antarctic.

There MUST be someone on the planet that doesn't know that.

Ellsworth, ME has one Catholic Church but dozen or so Baptist
and Pentecostal Churches.

Leave money in a basket unwatched? Dumb AND stupid.

What goes on in Europe doesn’t register with most Americans.
And before the internet, it was even worse. Living abroad is an eye opener.

A woman working at the recycling bins nearby told him a young man grabbed the basket and headed north around the back of Press Bay Alley, but didn't feel it necessary to tell him at the time it happened...

Mayor Baby Obama will probably blame this on the lack of free ice cream shops where sugar addicts can safely get their fix without stealing.

Professional Curtesy, I assume.

It could also be like Atlantic City, where you have dimwits like this guy who try to rob vendors.

1. I know. Never has much.

2. I know. We lived in the middle east (KSA) in the 1980's for five l-o-n-g years. But, we got what we wanted out of it: lots of money. Set us up very well. No federal income tax on the first $80,000.00 made over there for Americans working for Saudi ARAMCO.

Well, I don't recall the name of the town but I guess Maine just AIN'T "Catholic." That was a-okay with me as I liked the state very much.
