Those of you who park your car outside

Watch out for those vandals.
Just right now my neighbors car was set on fire. I don't know how the hell the fire department was here before it was completely engulfed in flames. By the time i got my phone to capture the video the flames were put out.

Be careful fellow RSers

Just a heads up theres an expletive toward the end of the video.

Edit: Hmm photobucket not working

Thanks for the headsup.

Was listening to the Beat yesterday when some kid called in for a request, and when DJ asked how come you arent in school...he replied, " Spring break for 2 weeks"
HUH?!? When has spring break become 2 weeks?

Either way, maybe its targeted?

Hard to say targeted. Its a family with two twin young children that live there. Don't know about the tenants though.

Can you guys see the video?

the extra days off are because of budget cuts. not because the teachers want to.

My brother's gf car had her passenger side window smashed in the middle of the night here in guildford. It was totally her fault for leaving her purse in plain sight though.

My wife forgot to lock the passenger door on the truck a couple nights ago, and the next morning we foud someone had gone through it. Everything that was in th glovebox was scattered on the seats.

There wasn't much in there of value, but they did take her eyeshadow makeup and a couple tubes of lipstick. They left her Salsa & Italian music CD's, I guess they don't like her taste in music. At least they didn't do any damage.

spring break was moved to 2 weeks because of the budget shortfall,

they dont pay staff for that extra week off which saves massive ammounts of money.
