And this just in, too

Round about 9:30, solarbird was out in the studio trying to do some work, while ssha and I were inside watching TV and hanging out. Dar was talking with us via the house MUSH, and so it was through that venue that I saw her give the heads up about hearing noises out by the carriage house... which is very near the house wherein reside the persons we think are responsible for the property damage and theft from Tuesday night.

Someone started yelling obscenities and hitting the carriage house so hard it shook, and Cyn and I heard it from in here.

We called the cops, and they got a car here real fast, but no immediate result came of it. The cop went to the wrong door at the house next door and only found the right one because Cyn ran after said cop and provided the Clue.

Things are quiet right now and Dar has returned to the studio, but she has taken her scimitar and spazzkat's pepper spray with her.

We're in for an interesting night. Dar has advised us to prepare to repel boarders.

Good luck, and load your cannon with grape.

Well, no sign out of the barbarians on the Northern border, at least not tonight. I left the door to our bedroom open so we could better hear anything from downstairs, and nothing woke us till we got awakened by the cat mewing that she wanted food and her litter box changed.

So. One weekend night down, one to go...

If you're uncomfotable shooting a bb-gun's worth of rock-salt at perpetrators, you can get a paintball gun and shoot paintballs at them- this would both hurt AND mark who they were so that you could ID them by sending the police to their house right away- it would take a bit to wash off the paint. Even better if you could fill pellets with a dye that they couldn't wash off for days.

I'm glad it isn't happening at out house. T would shoot them with a real gun or chase them down with the machete or nightstick and beat the crap out of them. Something about growing up in NYC and wanting to make sure that I and the cats are safe and protected.

Well, we'll see what happens... things were pretty calm last night, comparatively speaking. Some noise, but nothing directed at us.

And now we're hearing a rumor that the fuckheads in that house are getting evicted. If luck is with us they should be gone soon.
