(OT) A rl warning & rant ...

Call this a rl rant, earlier this morning I went outside, to hang my USA flag, for Memorial weekend.

And lo and behold what did I see right off, when I went to hang my flag ?

Every single solar yard light was STOLEN !

I had about 10 of em dotting my flower bed and going around part of the sidewalk/driveway...and well today they are all GONE !

They been there for nearly 2 yrs now, recharged em when needed to do so,
or replaced them for the ones that died out...
and NO ONE EVER STOLE the dang gum things from my front yard, before !

Now I have to ask ya what sort of lamer yard deco thief is this ?

TICKED ME OFF, the stupid things probably 'only cost' like 2-5- 10 dollars a pop
at some Walmart, or bit higher, depending where ya get em and what styles etc.
I mean GO BUY em if ya into them don't steal mine !!

*watches her flag* flyin in the wind....now if some turkey tries to pifler my American flag
Ima gonna greet em with my yankee southern hospitality and my shotgun !!!

Sheesh ...of all the STUPID things to steal out of peoples yards !!
Guess our lawn mower and 4x4 were just too heavy or big for em to steal out there.

So if ya have your flowerbed or sidewalk illuminated by them lil solar lights all in a row
or lil garden gnomes in ye front yard flower bed
BE YE WATCHFUL of ye dorky yard deco in rl or... some turkey lamer
may think ya put em all out there,
just for them to steal !

LOL I was just thinking of doing that, going for a walk around the neighborhood to see if someone has a yard full of mismatched lil solar lights, lighting their drive ways sidewalks, or in their yard
perhaps, stolen from everyone else's yards.

I duno we are just 4.5 miles south of the n/s runways of Memphis Internat'l airport,
maybe someone in the subdivision next one over, under the fly over more so that we are
maybe using em to illuminate their roof to keep fed x or delta from landin on their roof.


But then again, in this area, last place ya should put those lil solar lights is on ye roof,
cuz it is 24.7 jets flying over head some pilot may mistake em for the runway they are supposed to land on...won't catch me putting those ON MY ROOF, not in this area. lol


I dunno ! :)

Upon further investigation using my wonderous detective skills, after making a cell phone call... I have discovered the petty theft of all our solar yard lights, was an inside job.

Ye see the MAN is up in Iowa fishin with his brother, figured I wouldst call him first before, calling and bothering the local police regarding some silly rash of yard gnome & yard lights thefts, in our hood.

The MANZ says to me... 'MY BAD...I forgot to tell you...that right before I left for Iowa Sat morn,

Friday night, I put em all, in my tool-shed to work on em, when I get back
cuz some need a bit o' recharging to brighten em up again ! '

The Woman says to him...ye lucky I didn't shoot someone over this mister,
& thank you for NOT informing me !! :)

The manz laughs and says, 'please do NOT shoot me, when I get back.
I promise to bring us some fresh caught fish, and I will get all our solar lights
all recharged up & back in our front yard when I get home.'

I said unto the man, I will debate whether to shoot ye or not, :) cuz ya stressed me out leaving me uninformed, thinkin we had some weirdo neighborhood thief stealing dorky solar lights from our front yard/ flowerbed !

He laughs sayz YES MAM I shall return home prepared to meet my maker, or better half ! lol

MEN !!!! pftt !

When he gets home he BETTER have lotsa fresh caught Iowa fish to slap in our freezer,
and for the stress he causeth, he gonna buy me that $ 20.00 solar butterfly light
I want now too,
or after 40+ yrs of marriage, Ima gonna put HIM, in 'the moving crate'. :)

my lil dogs on alert, cuz they sensed my *post theft of solar yard lights* tension,

He lucky I don't smack him when he gets here. haha
