Ha, this isn't Ocean's 11. There would be all sorts of alarms going off if someone got in there anyway. And then the poor bastards have to figure out how to tow the thing and get my other gates open after they figure out how to get the shop doors open. They'd have to be very determined. But...

No worries. I was actually kind of hoping that if someone borrowed it for the weekend, they might fill it up with gas for me.

Tank, don't freak me out like that! Wasn't me in town, so I quickly checked my shop camera. Boat is still there waiting patiently and wasn't removed by some unauthorized party (good luck to anybody who was to try). Whew! Thanks for the brief cardio though...

Try Shane at Havasu Marine Specialties. Not sure he's been on here in a while, but he did a drive for me a while back.

Extension cords drawing power from the streetlight. Now theft of utilities is okay too? I'd also like to know if this POS has to pay property taxes like I have to. Total bullshit stuff like this is allowed.

There are plenty of cops who got into the line of work for all the right reasons. They wanted to do some good in the world, they like helping people, they felt like they would be a good fit, and it's genuinely what they wanted to do. Those are the ones I respect. Having said that, I worked with...

I just wanted to see exactly how much money it takes to fill a hole in the water.

You should add "I'm unemployed" to their list of complaints.

Yeah, ended up pretty lame. Guy just pulled over and gave up. Natural selection didn't have time to strike first.
