2. Hopefully to put in his/her own yard. Are they hard to come by
in PA? That is a pain, and rude.

4. They were, I got mine early.
But we got a bunch of them in on Wed., so they're pretty available now.
This pisses me off. I live on a pretty quiet street, so I'm guessing it was a neighbor.
Damnit. I didn't think I had to booby trap mine, but I guess I will with the next one.

6. We still have signs at Sen. Obama's office in Greensburg...
my friend and I were out at ten o'clock Wed. night and put out 30 signs in our area. It's such a beautiful sight to see them everywhere!

8. We got a bunch in Moon.
I'll get a new one, but damnit, I'm pissed.

They are pretty, aren't they?

:-)

3. Get yourself back down to the local headquarters and get a new one
And booby-trap it once it's installed back in your yard. :evilgrin:

5. I'll be volunteering from Sat am through Tue night
I know we have a bunch of them. I'll have someone bring one to me at the Steelers rally tonight.
:-)
I just thought my neighbors were better than this. Now I'm guessing at least one of them is not.

7. Oh yeah, have a camera on it and catch the "moran" in the act.

I'll set up the video camera on the new one tonight.
Thanks.

11. U R most welcome.
:-). BTW if you're tech savvy (or know a friend), there are some very smart ways to have that "precious moment" captured in video. :evilgrin:

Now we can't physically or emotionally harm morans because we're liberal. (BUMMER!) However, I'm more in line of using a "motion sensor attached to a flood light" simultaneously tripping a loudspeaker a la RoboCop warning blasting at, say 90 decibels?

Have fun! :hi:

12. LOL. If I wasn't volunteering for Obama all weekend,
I might just have to try that. As it is, I just called the police and a very nice police man stopped by and said they'd keep an eye out.

14. OK, I have another one.
What's the best way to protect it? I need something fast, as I have to be at Obama HQ at 8:15, and humane.
Any ideas?
