They Obliterated It

I lent my awesome, like-new, strong, padded K2 snowboard bag to my friend Michael for his recent trip over to Switzerland (I turned down the option to go along 'cuz I'm trying to save money) and somehow during the flight and/or baggage check the bag gets completely trashed. This is a bag made out of really strong rip-stop Cordura (or something very similar) and jumbo zippers and wide heavy-duty straps. This is a bag that doesn't just split apart and fall to pieces. Yet somehow the bag ended up slashed, ripped, mutilated, destroyed, etc. Hmmm... you think maybe one of those baggage handlers might have been looking for something? Maybe looking for something convenient to rip off? Oh, wait, maybe it got dirty and they were trying to wash it off in the sink and it fell in the garbage disposal while it was running and they couldn't get it out in time. Yeah, I bet that's what happened. Ptah! Argh. Fuckers. There, I said it. Now, I have already passed along the "bill" for adequate replacement and they (the airline) had better do right and do it quickly, too. I am waiting...
