Author Topic: MagLite Thieves! Malnurtured Snay Blogger Member # 411 posted                       I hate them. I've spent $60 this month replacing stolen Maglites. Grumble.

Member # 31 posted                       Are they being stolen out of your Jeep? Because, if so, I would point out that most vehicles use certain devices called "doors" and "a roof" to prevent unwanted access to the interior... Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged Malnurtured Snay Blogger Member # 411 posted                       I keep ... KEPT ... them in the locked trunk. Not completely secure, but still a bit of work to get them out when the top is down because you'd actually have to LIFT the folded top up to get access. -------------------- www.malnurturedsnay.net Registered: Sep 2000  |  IP: Logged Mucus Senior Member Member # 24 posted                       I was just wondering what made flashlight thieves so despicable as compared to regular ordinary thieves. And, this is probably a question I'm going to regret asking, but why would thieves go to that much trouble to steal flashlights when they could just steal your Jeep? Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged The_Tom recently silent Member # 38 posted                       Perhaps it says something about the Jeep. -------------------- "I was surprised by the matter-of-factness of Kafka's narration, and the subtle humor present as a result." (Sizer 2005) Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged Malnurtured Snay Blogger Member # 411 posted                       Yeah, the fact that all the cops in town know it and me by sight wouldn't be a factor. It is a rather distinct looking Jeep, you know? "What color Jeep got stolen? Blue-grey with a yellow grille? Damn, that's the third one today!" Mucus: "ordinary" thieves leave me alone. Although, I'm really referring to a specific item they are stealing and not the specific type of thief.

Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged Lee I'm a spy now. Spies are cool. Member # 393 posted                       Well, I'm guessing that either the torches are visible, or jeeps are known for being easy to get into so it was people just trying their luck. -------------------- Never mind the Phlox - Here's the Phase Pistols Registered: Jul 2000  |  IP: Logged Fabrux Epic Member Member # 71 posted                       Jeeps are easy to get into, when the soft top is on. Of course, if the top isn't on at all, well, it's your own damn fault for leaving valuables in your Jeep with the top down Of course, when the hardtop is on, it'd be like any other vehicle. A little harder, actually, seeing as where Jeep hardtops have plexiglass windows. (I think. Jeff?)

Any reason why they haven't nicked the radio? -------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable. Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged
