Copper crooks again? Or cock roaches?

Alarm systems are useless. No one reports an alarm anymore. Hope it is a monitored system. Hell, even with the monitoring service, you can still break in, clean house, and get out before the first head even turns toward the sounding alarm (in disgust).

Actually the "Sheriff was a 'near". They treated it as a "out in the county" call. I was less than a mile from the site when the alarm co. called, anyway. Looking at the date and time, it was meter-readin' time, but I went by anyway.

The dumbass from APCO says, "sorry". Another lesson as to how to work one of those wildly-complex alarm panels was in order.

The upside was that the monthly power bill will have an accurate meter reading.

That brings up a good point, though. I need to post some video from the sites. There's one I edited together called, "A Love Lost" that may be worth a post to YouTube.

Wonder how many politicians Cameron will have in his pocket!

Oh! I forgot now that the other party is in power we no longer have a culture of corruption.

Do you actually belive that, or are you gluing model airplanes in a confined-space again?

That isn't corruption to call the FCC off a Pirate station in your state is it?

Cameron reaches around his cape and in his best attempt to grab a rabbit pulls out a card with the name of the party that only had a president to resign...

An old, albeit popular, favorite.

...and then the technical thread collapsed into political nonsense.
