Its a laptop and they get stolen easily. Its nice to know its a secure
computer and nobody can nose around in easily. Here when we go to the
gas station you dont leave keys in the car or leave it running and you
lock your home. I just like the idea its tamper resistant. Laptops are
a theives 1st choise anywhere.

That's sad.
Here in small town midstate Illinois we commonly see pickup trucks in
the winter parked in front of the 'Fuzzy Duck' with engines running.
Not very energy thrifty, but beats having to wait for seat heaters to
work. Folks that move here from the big cities are said to be the only
ones bothering to lock their doors. But we do have effective
neighborhood watches (OK, nosey neighbors) and an unusually alert and
modern police force. Some call it peaceful. some boring. And we do
have a lot of licensed gun owners. Go figure.

Here I have one better. I have an old retired widowed lady next door
and the same right across the street. Hell, they see EVERYTHING. Ive
got a Big black Lab too that stays in the house but she would just
lick you to death. Looks like she would eat you alive though. Pretty
much never lock doors. Recently there has been some idiot robbing
homes during the day even when people are home in ours and a few close
cities. Locking the doors till they catch those morons. Always lock my
van no matter where I am. Too much chit in it. Even had to remove the
lock buttons and linkage and put cages in the van windows. Bonehead
broke my back van window while I was at lunch one day at a pizza
joint. That wont ever happen again. Bought a Glock. Shoot em and drag
em inside the van or the house if need be. Hate thieves.

BTU of flaming Propane out both front door zones, under the frame, its
