Angry The week from HELL!

Here is the recap-
1. My truck was broken into. Stole the stereo, F-up'ed the dash. Stole my garage door opener. Found muddy foot prints around the side of my house. (I live in a gated community.....never thought that would happen.) All when I was home. I wish they opened the garage door...being a former cop, I would of loved to meet them face to face......eeerrr... face to my S&W 4506-1 (still with my Department issued Black Talons which are made for Law Enforcement only.
2. Took my girlfriend out to a dinner and a movie. Parked the Porsche on the street and not in a parking garage (so I would not get door dings)....Just noticed today when I was washing the car THAT IT WAS KEYED ON THE PASSENGER FENDER! Again, I wish I met them too. The key mark is about 12 inches long. I now will break anyone's arm if I ever see them key anyone's car regardless of make.
3. Friday I was driving in my wounded Porsche making a Taco Bell run. Two high school kids think they are cool showing off in front of a girl in their truck. They pass me flipping me the bird. They get in front of me and to proceed to keep yelling crap and flipping me off (No reason at all). I'm pissed off as it is. The next red light I get out of the car and walk over to the little kid on the drivers side and asked if he had a problem. They were scared ****less. They did not know if they should take off and run the red light or **** their pants. Needless to say, I doubt they will EVER be doing that again. I made them look like fools in front of their girl.

In case you did not know there is often a reset button on the garage door motor itself. Push this to reset the remote codes. You will then have to reprogram in the remotes, but the one that got stolen will be useless. Look in your owners manual for details.

Sorry to hear about the Porsche getting keyed. I hate to say it, but that is the exact reason I hate parking the Porsche anywhere in public. Though better a scratch than a creased bumper.

Kevin.
I was in Modesto. It sucks.
The first thing I did was change the garage codes.

By the time I got to #3, I thought for a second that you might say, "They hit my car!". Be glad it wasn't more than a verbal conversation.

Also, your old department has standard issue Black Talons!
From a gun enthusiest standpoint, you're pretty lucky =)

Sorry for your property loss. Time for some flame throwers to
add to your truck alarm system

Chad,
I know how you feel... I had my other car keyed before.. from the headlamps to the rear tail lights... BOTH SIDES.... I was VERY pissed off, and I wish I could meet those people who did it.
at the end, I claimed for insurance, they painted the whole car again...

Keying other people car is not neccessary.... but some people are just plain jealous....
