A few weeks ago a couple of neighbours cars were broken into, so the management company for the apartment complex we all live on decided they'd warn everyone about this by sending a letter to all the residents. Being Americaland our front doors don't have letter slots and the management company don't have access to our mailboxes, so they left the letters attached to our front doors on the 24th.

Since then at least three apartments have been burgled, presumably as burglars now know who is away for the holidays. Guess what the management company did today? Yep, another letter...

Since it's America, you might as well sue the management company - easy 10k

Don't blame America on the failures of your apartment complex! My mail comes through the door. smile

Anyway, I recommend a Mossberg and an NRA sticker on your front door. smile

Wait inside, when they break in, blast a hole through them....crook is dead and an example is set. I know, I know....how primitive.

We were on the London Eye recently, with a bunch of loud Americans.

I pointed out the Crystal Palace Transmitter, but of course told them it was the Eiffel Tower in Paris.


They didn't have a clue.

Yea, we are all like that; unlike those nice quiet Brits we see abroad. wink ETA: How terribly relevant that was to the thread topic BTW. hehe

overheard at a yank dinner party over the holidays...

"...and he said it was the Eiffel tower. Obviously thought he was in Paris. Poor fella. We just nodded and smiled so as not to upset him further..."

You may laugh, but American people have great tenacity; not sure if you remember, but here in the US, you can be quite 'spirited' about defending yourself and your property if you feel endangered (quite rightly), but a while back, some complete ranch-bandit rigged up a (frankly brilliant) system of pulleys attatched on one end to the front door handle, and the other to a wall-mounted 12-bore, which was pointed at the door.

One loud bang later, his defence case didn't hold too much water.

Very primitive indeed - surely you could rig it up to a switch and save waiting in for them all night? ;-)
