Stealing seems to be a common habit of druggies (for lack of a better term) trying get some cash to feed their habits, so today's news should come as no surprise:
Christopher S. Frazier of York  is going to be charged with stealing and then pawning his brother's Wii. ( in addition to the Wii, Mr. Frazier allegedly stole some anti-anxiety types of medication.)

Mr. Frazier used part of the money to buy heroin, and the other part of the money to buy baby formula, which, in my opinion, is the funny part of the story. The sad part of the story is probably that this man is a parent. Although he tried to sell the Wii initially at the mall for offers ranging from $50-75, he ended up with a mere $25 at the local pawn shop. (I am now wondering what great deals I  could get at my own local pawn shop. A new Wii perhaps to give as a present for Father's Day? An old wedding dress for Halloween?)

It's also interesting to me that his brother chose to file charges in this particular case, making me feel doubly lucky for my own brothers who have never stolen anything more from me other than a candy bar at Halloween.
