They're baaaack....

As some of you may know, we've recently moved into fancy (yeah right) new
digs in Rancho Cordova, CA.  Surprisingly, it only took 6 weeks for the
thieves to find us once again.  This last weekend, someone decided to
liberate all the side mirrors off every Vanagon that wasn't locked up behind
the gate.  I don't know what else is missing and probably never will.

Just once I'd like to catch one of these bastards in the act.  I remember
when I was but a wee lad, my Father was lucky enough to happen upon an
unsuspecting radio thief that was busily removing a Blaupunkt from a
Mercedes in my Father's repair shop parking lot.  He kicked the door closed
on the thief's legs and then chased him away with a tire iron.  Of course
that was in the days before ridiculous law suits.

Oh well, life goes here in mirrorless Sacramento.

Cheers,

Jeff
