Woke up this morning at 0630 and looked out the window. Voyager mini-van

At first I thought my son had gone for an all-nighter until I saw the

back
from walking the dog to tell me she found the van around the corner with
the
engine still running. ?I went over and sure enough, the driver window was
smashed out with glass all over my seat. ?The ignition was ripped out,

the radio cd player gone. ?Took almost an hour for the police to show up.
He did his report and I drove the van directly to the closest Chrysler
dealership (walking distance). ?Still have collision/comprehensive on the
vehicle so I now have a rental while the van is made whole again.
My deductable on this is $100.00.

a thousand dollars in damages, and went half way around the block.

Well a couple weekeds ago some little locals decided to bust out the
windows on the back of my shop. 8 of them. about 800$ worth of (now)
plexiglass and labor. I'm also going to put industiral screening over
them. I hate to make the building look "Ghetto" but I don't know what
else to do.

Of course, If I caught one doing the damage, I'd be the one going to
jail.

The police just looked at the damage and shook their heads.

Do you have a security system? I'm in a "good" area but I still have full
perimeter coverage will a few motion detectors in case someone would want
to try to cut through a door rather than forcing it open. I also have one
camera that can pick up the largest area. I have $550K in inventory right
now so the ADT security system alone saves me more than I pay for it in
insurance premiums.

Being a former design engineer for a security products supplier, I do know
about security systems. Bad dog is still the best!

Is "Bad Dog' a national franchise?
