Don Surber relates a harrowing, yet strangely hilarious, encounter between a 90-year-old homeowner and a burglar.
Also from Don comes an important scientific observation: for solar power to work, you have to have, you know, sunshine.

Well, you always could stash one weapon in the can. Just in case.

ReplyDeleteIf solar was efficient, and inexpensive to make it would be on every building. It takes years to pay off, and the panel have to be replaced in a short span of time (just a few years). The cells are expensive to make. Solar should be as inexpensive as a computer or big screen tv by now.
The Veterans Adminstration just installed solar arrays at the hospitals in Sepulveda and West Los Angeles, CA. Who approved these projects? What is the cost to the taxpayers? My suspicion is that Senator Diane Feinstein has her hands in this. Her hubby is a contactor. She steered plum contracts to him and their contrator friends that cost her the committee leadership, but not her seat. She wasn't investigated.
Wasn't investigated? Wow that's a shocker. Wait, what's her party affiliation again. Oh yeah, never mind.
ReplyDeleteLots of defensive actions don't get reported nationally.
ReplyDeleteJust in the last 3 weeks or so, in my 707 area code, (area codes seem to be important in the sense of "representing" one's area of residence, to a certain segment of the population) a pregnant woman shot a hole in the wall of her own house, thus scaring off two young men she claimed to not know who broke in one day.
Several days later, a young husband and father in Orick, Ca
chased off two hoodie clad fuckwads with balls of brass and gunfire.
