You & me, both, Sandy. I used to keep change in my truck and they would steal it. I started locking it up, and the assholes vandalized the truck, (Keyed it all up.) Now, I just don't leave anything in it, and the truck is so old and beat up, I don't worry about anyone stealing it. The Challenger stays under the cover, or in the garage when I can make room. Funny (good) thing is, they never mess with the house. And I've got $12,000+ worth of audio gear in here.

I know what you mean about the "welfare housing". I have four large "section 8" apartment buildings two blocks from here. It's usually fairly quiet. But, last night there was a bunch of shouting, gunshots and sirens coming from over there. It happens enough that it doesn't even make it into the news anymore.
Frickin' crazy.
