While trying to get the teener roadworthy again yesterday, I went hunting for my box of small tools and parts. Everything from small screwdrivers, to small metric machine screws and nuts - is gone. As I looked further so are all of my modeling supplies - sable brushes, files and my airbrush. Gone. Star wrench, deadblow hammer and another cigar box full of modeling supplies.
I live in a small neighborhood of fourplexes. My garage faces another bank of garages. Fairly private you could say. I have been leaving my garage open after driving and parking the teener to give the hot air somewhere to go. Apparently one of these times, one of my neighbors (the only ones who could know the door was open) decided to walk in and help themselves. Doesn't seem too smart to steal mechanics tools when there are only 3 of us that ever work on our cars. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) It's a sad day when you can't even trust the people that live next to you not to steal from you. |

I'm telling you, man...
A cheap computer and a cheap camera. Some cheap motion detectin software, and you will have no more worries... Whoever comes into your garage is going to get fingered by Mr. Computer and that info will get passed to The Man. Pics sent to neighbors if The Man doesn't uncover anything, and your neighbors probably know the little M.F.er anyway. End result is happy neighbors and a more care free you. Oh yea', and sweet revenge... Whoops, did I say that??? |
