[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

A lot of the security stuff is common sense, like, hello! lock your doors and windows! If you're a jewelry dealer, don't leave diamonds and expensive watches in suitcases. Don't assume your dog will scare off intruders. Don't leave your car keys in the car. Don't leave crowbars and cement blocks and shovels and other stuff that can be used to break in your house, accessible in your yard.

And then don't be shocked when an actor doing what you agreed to let him do, breaks in and makes a mess of your stuff and figures out your secret hiding place under the bed.

I think it is to wake people up that there are theives who make their living exploiting the giant vulnerabilities in one's home security.

I really want a charlie bar for my back slider, and window sensor alarms for the first floor windows and a couple second floor windows. Would probably cost a couple hundered bucks, and it would make my house an more unattractive target.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I finally got window blocks for all my windows - and I have extra in case I drop one in a hard to reach place. All my windows are sliders - and they have locks. But in the summer they are open - now I can open them - but only so far so air can get in , but not people.

And question one is done. onto question two - which is easier because it is a tech what do you know about a, b, or c. and for half the machines and systems the answer is: Nothing.

It's too late for me. I think my car is a clone of your Honda.

Please don't feel guilty about missing the funeral Aimee. Like everybody else said, it's the time during life that counts.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Someone make me go to the market so that I can cook dinner and bring it up to Dave's like a promised. The one good thing about working was that it was helping my energy level a bit. Since I haven't been moving to much lately, no energy again, and I am having to get used to carrying a backpack around campus all over again.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Don't leave crowbars and cement blocks and shovels and other stuff that can be used to break in your house, accessible in your yard.
