QUOTE:
The mentality of society today makes me sick. A number of us bust our asses to acquire nice things, while the lazy useless wastes of flesh can walk around destroying all our hard work. To make the matter worse...even if the perp had been caught, our judicial system would perhaps slap the wrists and ask nicely that they don't do it again. There are some instances where I agree with the Middle Eastern ways. Someone is caught stealing? Cut off their hands. If these were times of depression and one had to steal and break the law to survive, I may have some forgiveness... It is not those times for now. Work is plentiful, and there is a great chance the one who broke your window is getting a healthy government subsidy and don't really need to work. This crap really makes me sick. I believe the statement made by one news group that if gun laws were more relaxed, the crime rate may lower...


totally agree Sherm

Happy Saturday mornin'all. TJ, in 87 we bought our first house on Andrews St, one block south of Mountain. We started having similar problem`s. It was a beautiful house on a clean block. After 6 month`s, we sold and moved to the north Part of West Kildonan, and 16yrs ago we moved to West St Paul, where we are now. It was too frustrating in the N. End. Eventually MPI may dick you around regarding insurance. I could go on forever airing my beefs about the hoolum situation, but we all know there is not much our society is willing to do to curb this. It seems to be happening everywhere these days. I say send em all to a boot camp up north, Hundreds of miles from civilization. Air lift the basic neccesities, and let them figure it out. A couple of weeks of decent weather would be nice. Any sunny day`s without wind would be nice. Have a great weekend guy`s.

A couple down the street had back window broken on their newer GMC the same day as 150 had brick thrown at it. Yesterday when the 250 had window broken. The same said couple on same truck had drivers front door window broken. This when all that covered the 1st breaking in was like cling wrap. Why not cut thru that and not break another window???

Birchwood Ford was great. Had a new window installed yesterday and all glass cleaned up. Down side was I had to pay for the entire cost of new glass, $730. As there was more damage than just glass. MPI will reimburse that cost minus my deductible, $100. When the truck goes in for its estimate.

I now park both trucks on my back lawn at night and have installed another larger brighter motion light. Next step is to catch and tie up a Bigfoot in back yard. Maybe a roof top gun torrent.

Good Sunday morning...a bit brisk but if the wind was down it would be a really nice fall morning. Oh well, the sun is shining, we'll take it.

I second the gun turret idea TJ. I would also wire a perimeter around the vehicles with high amperage/voltage electric wire. A hungry rottweiler in the front seat would help also, not malnourished, but just a little hungry

We're almost at 100% egg production. 20 layers produced 17 eggs yesterday

Have a great day everyone!!!

Morning all...and a beaut it is so far. Clear and crisp. Looks like its supposed to be a nice week, double digit temps for highs, sunny... I'll take it. Hopefully get all the walls standing on the shop we're working on. My helper is really hoping we can get the roof metal on before snow flies...I guess he's not fond of sliding down a roof or something...

Hope everyone has a great Monday. Make the most of it boys.
