Taking a Leap of Faith

Andrea · 11-27-2005

So... my mouse-ear wearing turkey antenna topper made it through Thanksgiving without being stolen (it only had to last 4 days)!

Now, I take a dim view of humanity in general, but I'm taking a leap of faith and putting my Mickey Mouse as Rudolph topper on the antenna. What are the odds of it making it through Christmas?

I've always wanted Mickey antenna toppers, but I've never purchased one because I've always figured I'd be too disappointed when (not if) it got stolen. So here I am, going for it... anyone want to place bets on its lifespan?

I really love it.

These things get stolen?????? REALLY? no way! Who would steal a freaking antenna topper?

Pixie · 11-27-2005

oh yeah!!! Stupid tennagers think it is so funny to go through at the mall and take peoples antenna topper!!! i saw the cops catch them once and they had to put them back and write a note to the ones they stole from!!!

**WishUponAStar** · 11-27-2005

so weird, I've never heard of people stealing them! Andrea, I'd take a leap of faith, they are cute!!

**Dopey** · 11-27-2005

How unmagical to steal something like that. Go ahead, take that leap.

Andrea · 11-27-2005

Well, it's on, and has survived a trip to Home Depot.

If it's anything like the turkey, I'll continually forget about it, then just crack up when I notice it!

bumble · 11-27-2005

Take the leap! I still have my WDW Mickey as a Jack-o-lantern antenna topper on, and the one I had before lasted almost a year before I thought it looked too worn to use anymore. I will be changing to the Christmas Mickey ears shortly :)

If I had an antenna, I would take the leap.

Funny, I was just looking these up and realized I don't even have an antenna either!

Anyway, I had no idea there were so many kinds.

Go Colts!

I had no idea people have a penchant for stealing these....I have a Mickey shaped one that is red and white stripes (like a candy cane) w/ holly on top - from WDW. I hope it dosen't get stolen

- this is how I locate my car in a busy parking lot!!!!

I'll be a sister in spirt with you and put up my pink Mickey (Minnie?) with the castle crown that I have been hiding since my DL trip in July.

Now, I think if anyone were to take yours, it'd be at a mall, where teenages and Disney-crazed mom's like me go. Not that all teenagers are thiefs and I'd never steal your topper, but I think that's the demographic of 'who' would commit a crime like this

: I'm going to say if you have it after 3 trips to busy shopping places, it's yours for life.

Let us know!

I had a minnie princess from my last trip, I put it on the car forgot about it and within a week it had gone! I don't know if it was stolen or it was a case of me driving to fast down the motorway! I don't think I will get another one as our family car has nowhere to put it!

**Dana** · 11-28-2005

I can't believe people steal them around your way.

I live in Jersey and no one touches mine. I had the same mickey sorcerer one on my car for two years. I just changed it to Cuties Eeyore because my DD got it for me for my birthday.

"Way to go" to those police officers! Making the kids write a note... I love that! Teens can be such devils, and it is good for them to have some responsibility!!!
