cliff notes: nice garages don't protect shit if you don't use them.

This is another story about theiving bastards, and the ffing retards they are. So, week #1 at my new house. I'm still getting everything arranged and whatnot, so there's still stuff everywhere. Yesterday, I call in sick to work because, well, I'm sick. Work calls, big meeting, can't miss it, big client downtown, wells fargo center, blah blah blah. I pull my ass out of bed, clean up, and make the meeting. It goes fine. I head home, head for bed, and my pager goes off. Doh! More problems at work. I end up going in and working on a few dead routers and a ff'd up qwest atm until 12:30 am.

So much for my sick day! On the way home, there is shit down everywhere. I mean trees on houses, trees in houses, and general crap all over all the streets from the storm. I get home, and voila, the power is still out. Damn, guess I'm parking outside at the new place. As I am sitting & letting the turbo cool down, I get this vision of New Orleans, and all the looting that took place after the storm there, and invisioning stuff like that taking place in minneapolis.

Well sure as shit, 4 phone calls later for work it's 2am, and I'm exhausted. The power comes on, and I decide to just leave the car outside. In case the power goes off again (which it did!) and it stayed off, I need to be back downtown at 7:30am to meet the ffing Qwest technition.

6am, I hear my alarm go off. I grab my keys and go flying out the front door. No one around, I am ready to brawl in my boxers w/ whomever is out there. Yippee! My driver's side window is trashed. My neighbor comes out (how awesome is that?) saying he saw saw a car driving away.

They had just enough time to yank the dash face off around the vents and stereo, then fled because I think they knew I was coming out to put the smack down (I flipped on the light, via instinct, when I woke up).

Now my question: what the fuck is wrong with theves? My 1G was broken into in the past. They all have factory alarms, right? Why bother? And get this--I have an ipod shuffle. the little, little one. It was behind the s-afc, and they must have pulled on the cord attatching it to the stereo to get the bevel off. When I discovered it, they had left it sitting right in the shifter boot. Retards, fools, idiots! It's the 1 Gb model, so it's worth around $130. it's the size of a pack of wrigley's. Why not take that?

Well, on a lighter note, anyone want to see pics of the new place? I'm having a housewarming party in a few weeks, and you guys are all invited.

well, the cops came. The guy not only placed the blame back on me for not using the emergency release on the garage door to open it & put the car in, but after I said to him, "well, I'm sure you have better things to do than help me out here with this..." he casually said, "nah, not really."

Fucker. This reminds me of when my friend's car got stolen about two years ago. I actually figured out who stole the car and where it had ended up. But, since they ditched the car & it was at the city impound lot, they didn't do a damn thing about it.

Anyways, new house pics are here:

Ouch that sucks.

The house looks good though. I'd add some motion sensor lights back by the garage and re-enforce the back door so it can't get kicked in.

There are a good selection of window films that can easily defeat thieves.Products such as Shatterguard or Ace Laminates go on like window tint and can stop crow bars, bats, sledgehammers, etc.Ace laminates films' are even bullet and blast proof when applied to windows of sufficient thickness.
