    To defend my home from thieves I did fix exterior cameras and a perimeter alarm.
    Doing ports for yachts, my co-workers also have to cover the active and do they know.
    To differentiate myself, I changed the sound of the alarm with the sound of a siren IIWW.
    One night he began to play and we could not stop it!
    what a shame!
    All around pissed like hyenas!

    We need a bookie to take down bets on how long the cameras will last before they are stolen.

    The Italian for stool is feci. No one really wants a chip off the feci.

    This explains why no one has come to steal.
    Indeed, the reason for which is not just more came.

    Gentlemen,

    This is not a joke. I had a motorcycle engine stolen from a bike in my back yard. The cops came out and did their thing.

    Just before leaving one asked me - "who has been at your house recently" - and went on to say that it had to be someone next door, or someone who had been at the house.

    Really bummed me out thinking about friends and neighbors.

    My neighbor had his engine stolen out of his old car in front of his house. Two weeks later a guy comes to the door and tries to sell him one because he can see it's missing. It's his engine! His girlfriend calls the cops and they arrest him.

    True story.

    Hoyt, if you are full of work, I can put you in touch with the head of the architects who designed all AICON.

    Now they are all unemployed and with little money you may solve your delivery time.

    Look at what people can do that:

    There are also internal.

    All stainless steels for those boats I built them.
    Including doors, swim ladders and footbridges.

    That is a beautiful yacht. I hope they find work soon, as soon as they get tax relief on their products they will get busy again.

    When will the government learn you can't milk a dead cow?

    AMERICAN CORPORATION
    You have two cows ... You sell one cow, lease it back to yourself and do an IPO on the second cow ... You force the two cows to produce the milk of four cows ...

    The Russian Mafia shows up and takes whatever cows you have.

    TALIBAN CORPORATION
    You have all the cows in Afghanistan ...Which are two ... You don't milk them because you cannot touch any creature's private parts ... You kill them and claim a U.S. bomb blew them up while they were in the hospital.

    IRAQI CORPORATION
    You have two cows ... They go into hiding ...They produce television tapes of their mooing.

    POLISH CORPORATION
    You have two bulls ... Your employees are maimed and killed on a regular basis attempting to milk them.

    FLORIDA CORPORATION
    You have two cows - a black cow and a brown cow ...Everyone votes for the best cow ...
    Some of the people who like the brown cow best, vote for the black cow ... Some people vote for both ... Some people vote for neither ... Some people can't figure out how to vote at all ... Finally, a bunch of guys from out-of-state tell you which is the best cow."
