I am going away for a while and I want to use timers to turn on lights and also a radio, but some radios get so far out of tune, even when I don't touch them, that almost nothing comes out, and I'd like the radio to continue to play the station clearly. Are you afraid some border-hoppin' thief is going to steal your stuff? The most effective way to keep the criminals out is to build a wall around your house. Open borders don't work. |

She was trapped in the Oldsmobile and couldn't escape from it. If she was thrown clear of the Olds, she would have lived assuming she could swim, and assuming she would have "survived" being a witness to an incident that included a Kennedy and a woman not his wife.. Maroon is such a underappreciated hue.. |

The most effective way to keep the criminals out is to build a wall around your house. Open borders don't work. All walls around properties do is give the thieves shelter from outside eyes. All lights do around properties is give thieves light to work with. All that is necessary to prevent thievery is for *your* house to be a little bit tougher than the next house. Much as I do not have to be faster than the bear, just one other person. Dogs work well. And being home at the target time. Given that most burglaries happen between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm - when most people are at work or at school. And in the better neighborhoods, a panel van will drive up, a couple of individuals get out in jump suits and carrying clip-boards. One might set up a power-washer or some such.... you get the picture. In the next township over from us, a truck delivered some cheap furniture, in boxes, and loaded up all the good stuff prior to leaving. Brilliant. Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA |
