So, last night I was watching a movie when there are 3 loud bangs on the door. I jumped up and looked out the door window and saw no one there. Must be some stupid asses playful kids from the neighborhood.

I could have caught the whole event on camera… if only I had the cameras running. I figured a couple months ago that I didn’t need to keep the security cameras running when I was at home. That would save the computer, electric, noise, etc. Now I have an answer to that question why the cameras should be running.

What did I do to make sure it didn’t happen again last night? I hid in the shadows hung out in the front near the street for a while. A local kid rode his bicycle near me when I asked, “Have you seen any other kids hanging around the street tonight.” This nearly made him piss his pants of course. He wasn’t expecting me there. He said he would tell me if he saw anything going on and then rode off.

I suspect he went and told his friends who were walking further down the road. A few houses down from me, they were having  a family gathering. The kids were hanging out in the street and I think they were involved.

I decided to take a walk and let them know I was watching. As I walked by I commented, “evenin’.”  I figured such a comment would let them know I was around and freak them out enough to head indoors. I was right.
