I ordered an Italian Spiderman shirt yesterday.... had I been wearing it... the thief would have been deadmeat, pussycat
Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project.

I didn't even bother locking mine.  I would rather have the worthless crap that I bothered to leave in it stolen than have someone knife the windows or top to get in.  The only thing ever stolen was a smaller MP3 player.  Oh, that and my F'ING GAS.  I kept noticing, "Man, I know this thing drinks gas but I'm pretty sure I had more than that.  Then one day I had actually filled up rather than just put a little in and came back out to a near empty tank.

So if you have a an easily accessed gas tank, make sure you have a locking cap.

I haven't noticed any gas missing, but I feel the same way about locking the doors and such (when they are actually on the car)  I would much rather have them just open it and find out there's nothing in there than have to buy a new top or windows.  My fiance however ALWAYS locks the door and it drives me crazy.  He will even lock the door if I am in the car and he's outside talking to me before I drive off.  Then I get to where I'm going and go to open the door and...doh...it's locked!  I know he's just keeping me safe but it's a little irritating none-the-less.

Sorry to hear, BP.  I hate thieves

Last year some little twit pushed in a panel on my garage door and stole a bunch of tools.  He used one saddlebag to carry the tools, leaving me with one.  My neighbor the break in.  Thought the predator was a a guest ???  A guest would have a key.  I don't expect heroism over material goods.  Just drop the dime.

With the mentality of "not locking your door so they don't break something" is just silly.  Use this incident as an example, he tried the front door to the house and it was locked.  He didn't break in he split, probably would've done the same if the car was locked.  Thieves will go for the easier mark, that's just how it is.

Even if they break in rather than casually open the door at least then they might make noise that someone will hear or an alarm will go off.  Hopefully someone who will take some action rather than watch the whole event unfold.

Sorry you lost your things BP it sucks.  Personally I try not to leave anything in the car that if stolen I would get steamed about but I still lock the doors.  Work for my garbage you thievin bastard!  ;D

You should spread the word about how effective your neighborhood watch really is.

For a house or regular car, I totally agree.  A wrangler takes two seconds to cut in to and barely anybody would even notice.  Its better to just not keep valuables in it or in a secured box somewhere.  Oh yeah, and you can't lock what isn't there for the summer time.

Those are the exception since Wranglers and convertibles won't make a noise when they get cut, unless they whimper.

a lil twist.

That lasted a few minutes, then, he got out of the truck, and went for the front door of the house. After checking to see if it was open, he then casually walked up the street.


BP and I have apparently had a miscommunication . . . Mrs. Neighborhood Watch Captain did not see the perp again after he headed for the front door.  From her property, our front door is obscured by landscaping.  Not that it makes it any less alarming, but she didn't see him try to enter the house or walk away.

(I barely even know Mrs. NWC, so why am I feeling the need to defend her?)

what's up with the dissing on the wife's?  :-\  [laugh]

Well, because the wife is the only other person to have access to the car.  Nobody else "Should" be in my car.  Of course, at first I would think she did it.
