Someone who should reconsider his methods

After reading this story, I think maybe I just have a different idea of what it means to better yourself.

SAN ANTONIO – A man who said he was "sorry" and “…just trying to better himself” was arrested by police on Tuesday.

At 2:55 a.m., an alarm went off at the San Antonio Police and Fire Fund Building at 311 Roosevelt, just south of Downtown. Minutes later, Richard Thomas Alvarez was detained by officers investigating another nearby call.

Investigators say they found several items from the building on Alvarez. According to the police report, these included a laptop-computer bag, digital camera, and cell phone.

Hm. Education. Hard work. Enlightenment. Consideration for your fellow man. How silly of me to think those things could make you a better person. Instead, it's stolen electronics.

Imagine that.
