    Scrap metal thief just stole from me.

    I just got a call from my warehouse neighbor in Michigan that a dark green Dakota Sport (lic. plate CKJ0232) was seen stealing scrap from my container. Called the cops. Wish I was there. The thief and I would have a chat.

    Time to get a cover for your box or container. A few sheets of steel and two pieces of channel could have saved you. Just use a tow motor to remove the cover for access to your box or lugger.

    When I get back to Detroit I will be tracking this sum&^%$# down.

    Sorry didn't think about my use of that word and anyone being offended.

    But I DO wanna kick the snot out of him. I won't, but I WANT to!

    I am glad that someone saw it, took down the license plate number, and the cops were called. Whoever it is needs to be taught a lesson.

    Hope you catch him and get your stuff back. I just sent a 14 year old boy to jail today for stealing from me. Next project: Make flyers for neighbors warning of my neighbors and to watch out for each other. These people have been stealing from everyone and haven't been caught in tis area till today. One old man can't catch them b/c he just isn't physically able to......but it's them.
    Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.

    Our serviceman was inspecting some HVAC equipment this past week and when he went to look at condensers someone had stripped the units where they sat.Compressors and bottoms were left.3 total.A strip mall had 18 condensers stripped in a night.Whoever did that one had help and was very organized.Only a matter of time before our yards in ILL. will have to require paper work from us before accepting a.c.scrap.
