Aw, crap! At this point, I would set a booby trap out for these assholes….

I’m thinking that you should just leave the windows cracked open with a sign (in English and Spanish) that says…”If you really need that $1.50 in pennies in my car, just reach in and take it. Spare me the broken window.”

Of course, after watching a lot of Wild Police Videos, I’ve come to the conclusion that most criminal types aren’t smart enough to read. They just like the sound of the smashing glass.

You’ve GOT to be kidding. Where the heck do you live?

Damn! That sucks. You should do like my country cousin. No lie, at night – ’cause city kids used to drive out to his farm and other farms in his part of Jersey to cause mischief – he began parking his truck about halfway up his long dirt road driveway. And he’d have one of his big vicious dogs sleep inside the the pick-up at night – with the windows rolled down, of course.

He knew the dog wouldn’t run away. But he also knew that if the dog heard a peep he’d be up and out that window in a sec. He stopped having trouble w/kids messing around in his barn within a few weeks – presumably ’cause Cujo scared the hell out of ‘em.

Hope the rest of the year starts better for you.

I live in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, right between North Miami and Miami Shores. Nuns live across the street from me.

While HobGoblin can be a mean ol’ cuss, James, I don’t think he’d be much of a deterrent to a thief. He was a kitten the first time my house was robbed, and the burglars kicked him around. He’s kind of skittish of strangers now.

You gotta stop leaving that laptop out on the back seat.

But seriously, what the hell are they taking?

my ass. not again. ugh. =(

I can’t believe it happened again! My advice would be to leave the windows open and doors unlocked. Keep nothing in your car, not even spare change.

When my car kept getting broken into, I would think of ways to booby trap the car, such as leave a bunch of tacs on the seat. But then I thought, my luck, I’d sit on them myself.

I wish you better luck in 2007!

Fence in the driveway and house, get a pit bull or two. The chain link and dogs will cost appx $4000, but can you really put a price on peace of mind?
