Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
If you can read this DC.....and you're killing time before the bus ride......try the cops if you haven't...they should let you make a collect call if you've been mugged....barring that...a homeless shelter(?)...for the phone. Some libraries offer free internet service.. Hope there is someone stateside you can contact directly. It's 1am here.....11pm when I first read of your plight. Everything is closed
God speed

Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
^i1der just told me the mugger did get his laptop, and that's probably where he had my phone numbers stored.

Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
For future reference, for anyone living in small towns who want to send money by Western Union, if you have a credit card then you can do it all online.

well that's me out then....they do have an agent here in my town, but I needed more specific details from DC first, and by then he was already off line.
I wonder if he was at the hospital just to use their computer or as a result of injuries from the mugging? Anyone know? i1der?

he didn't mention but I'm guessing that he probably got treated for the injuries suffered from the incident.

Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
Back on for a few moments. I found the Greyhound station. I don't know how I made it there. Longest walk of my life seems like. I went through these neighborhoods that are straight up MS13 and the surrounding ones all Haitians, Cubans, and the Latin community. Not an English speaker in sight.....
Anyways, I needed the Ref# from i1der's call and luckily it was pmed to me. (I'm posting from a La Quinta Inn)
Tired, hungry, angry, but most of all very grateful that the world has people like you all in it.
regardless of what happens to me, you guys got it deep down where it counts.
if at all possible, Western Union, a little food $$ would help.
I did PM eso, the details of it WU, but I think he's of line now.

Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
I don't know what else to say DunceCap, except good luck to you the rest of the way. I'm just glad you made it to the Greyhound bus station, I was a little concern not knowing how bad you're, physically.

Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
Farkin hell....you don't half get some drama on here....it's nice to think that however foked we are, anywhere in the world, that the folks on this forum might just be able to save our skins one day. Hope you get to where you need to go safely Duncey.

Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
fuck me if I didn't have to go out back and dig up some of my reserves.....and it was still daylight.
hope the neighbors didn't see me
------------------------
Dunce I've called the La Quinta Inn that you gave me the address, and the girl said you weren't registered there or in the lobby. But she gave me the number for the Greyhound terminal near there and I called that, but they won't pick up the phone!
I wanted to try to get you paged to let you know the money is available now at Western Union for you to pick up.
The girl at La Quinta said there's a 24 hour Western Union somewhere near the motel, so maybe you can get to it before your bus departs. I'm signing off now and won't be back on till in the morning.
Hope everything works out for ya man, hang in there.

Re: ***Emergency*** need help DunceCap
Unusual request, unusual thread 
Good of i1der and Eso to help Duncey out, no questions asked.
This all raises many questions, but I hope it all works out well, and that money sent in goodwill is repaid.
Good luck Dunce Cap.
