There was even an Amazon delivery truck stealing them.

Sure wish there was a commercially available version of something like this.

It reminds of a story Mom told about a friend who was on her way to bury her dead cat, which was wrapped in a decorative box. She stopped at a store on the way and came out to find the box gone. She went into the store's restroom and found the thief passed out inside, after having opened the package and finding the dead cat.

Karma!

guitars, electronics, etc. They obviously didn't need to steal for food or money. They only did it because the could...nothing to stop them. Brilliant plan and engineering. He should sell them.

I want to marry this man. But I think I'm twice his age, so maybe I could adopt him?

Or do a mind-meld so I can be as smart as he is, and come up with these brilliant ideas.

This was just too good. Bookmarked for future laugh sessions.

1) I'd be afraid the thief would come back for revenge.

2) instead of glitter, cornstarch or baking soda would freak them out even more, they might think it's anthrax or something and would probably go turn themselves in to the police or a hospital. LOL

Nice clothes, nice cars...either thieving pays well or they're just doing it because they can.

There are garbage people at every social economic strata. Someone will always be out there wanting what you have. No matter how little you have.
