Crime Spree

I was just watching the am news from the Big City. They reported a "crime spree" in my old neighborhood, with more than $60,000 worth of jewels and goods being stolen. They showed a picture, only a few blocks from my house. Hmmmm....guess the guy (or guys or gals) that were helping themselves to my televisions and other household appliances, on a somewhat regular basis, have realized that I have left the 'hood.

I got used to getting a new TV every 6 months or so....Nothing like a little burglary action to induce some deep house cleaning....look at the dust that I had under that TV. Obviously, it should have been removed much sooner.....Seriously, I am so glad that I don't have to deal with my personal crime spree anymore.

Living with a pit bull I probably don't worry as much about burglery as should--no locked doors and open windows. Truth be told though, the only thing that I'd be upset about losing would be computer and a few mementos. Many years ago my roommate and I had our condo burgled--he left big tracks in the mud on the back patio(pointed-toe boot tracks it looked like). Only thing he took was some of my roommate's frilly underwear. Creepy. I teased her saying that "Tex" was probably sitting up on the bank behind our condo fondling her underwear and spying on her.

Hope you and the ragracers are enjoying summer in your crime free neighborhood.

The photo looks like life as normal in a house full of whippet puppies, yes???
