Default It's not every day you see a man in a black ski mask...

Well, I just finished installing my new elemental designs system and my viper 5000 security system.

It was about 11:00 P.M. and I was carpeting my sub box...I disarmed my car and carried some stuff out to the garage...then walking back in the house I decided I wasnt going to move my car just yet, so I rearmed it...lo and behold I see a man walking across the street in a black ski mask carrying something...I watch him as he walks by my xb, eyeing it...and then walks on...

huh...so I figure he was casing my scion and hear the alarm go on and off and decided against it....darndest thing ive ever seen...guess my alarm paid for itself already! :D

How did that happen? My xB was stolen about 6 months ago, but I left it running like a dumb ___. Luckily, I found it the next day, yes, I found it not the police. The police were so fuct up!!

Thats good to hear, except the paranoia in me says watch out if thats at your house. They might be waiting for the right time to strike now. Keep a good eye out Zarq-

yeah, its right across from my place....I live in town by a mall...so lotsa lowlife traffic....but anyway, I always bolt the door and now I use the chain too...Im not too worried about myself, but my wife and 5 mo old son are alone during the day.....

I hate goons

thanks for the reminder to keep my head up and my finger on the panic button...

goons are the reason I feel like carrying a gun sometimes. I am a hard working individual, going to school at nights, and it bothers the ____ out of me to worry about people trying to break into your box....

every mod i think about always has the question "____, what if someone breaks into it?" as the follow up to if the mod can be done and i hate that! my poor 5 month old box is still bone stock because of this. i feel if i change anything to make it look nicer, people are going to start breaking into it =/
