Default home security

That's likely to scare off any two footed critters.

You also might want to check out a "game" camera. Some of these don't
use a visible flash and some do. You can decide for yourself what
makes the best sense.


A few years ago, two teenagers broke into a large boat shed in Maine. As
they were vandalizing the boats, they noticed a video camera.

Nothing for it but to burn down the shed.

Of course the recording equipment was located in the repair shop's office
and it took the local cops about thirty seconds to identify the culprits.

The oldest, 19, plead guilty and was sentenced (as I recall) to five years
probation.

The Secret Service then got involved, because one of the destroyed boats
belonged to George H.W. Bush. The younger boy, aged 14, was convicted of a
terroristic act and sentenced to 2-1/2 at the nation's only maximum-security
facility for juveniles. In Pennsylvania.

Imagine being locked up for 30 months with 300 drunk Indians.
