What gadget/s can't you currently leave your home without an

Inspector-
Gadget

Sorry couldn't resist LOL ;) :)

Ok,

Now I have to make up for more stupid/sillyness.

Only thing I take with me is my watch:

In case somebody asks:

"What time is it ?" ;) :)

The watch is kinetic so my body-movement provides for the energy and it has
a little battery...

And when I press a button the pointers move around and then stop to show how
much energy it has...

Then it waits for the extra time to elapse again... and then it starts
ticking as normal again.

When it's low on energy the pointers start making a hearbeat movement...

Like tick-tick, tick-tick, tick-tick to indicate it's last hearbeats ;)

Kinda cool isn't it ? ;)

I only wish it had special paint on the pointers so it would light up in the
dark ! ;) :)

Bye,
Skybuck =D
 
Reminds me of a story of my dad, can't remember exactly but it went
something like this:

He had a store... had cash in the store... was about to go home... or maybe
it was in the morning.

His store was very long... I think he heard something in the back... so he
went to take a look.

Then somebody snuck into the store at the front... went into the middle of
the store where the money bag was... stole it and went outside.

My farther did hear the doorbell.. so he went to the front of the store...
and saw the door was left standing open... I think he saw a nigga
walking/running away or something like that...

Then he went back into the middle of the store and he noticed his money bag
was gone !

It all happened in under one minute.

Seems reasonable to suspect it must have been two persons... one in the back
causing the distraction... and one sneaking into the front to steal stuff.

Also long ago my brother lost an expensive kinda-golden plated speed-bicycle
he made himself...

He parked it outside for 30 seconds or so... he went inside came back...
poof gone.

I was like 5 years old or so... at the time... so I saw how fast it went...

I didn't see nobody.. it was like... now you see it... now you dont...

Thiefs are hell-fast !

Bye,
Skybuck.

Locks only keep the honest or lazy out. How do you know that you having
deadbolts doesn't mean the thieves think you have something worth
protecting?

The only thing that I absolutely must have are my pants. My wife says
that were I to leave them home, the women would mob me, and the men
would lynch me.

Cell phone is the only thing. I don't have anythign else that I carry.
I even leave my car keys in the car so I don't carry them either.
I see a quick profit here! Where do you park your car?

In my garage... <g> However many people where I live don't take their
keys out of the car. It is not uncommon to see a car running at the
convience store in the winter, no one in it. (Yea, a few get stolen,
too...)

You must live in a very good neighborhood!

I learned in a hard school! For several years I lived about two blocks
from the Trenton, NJ city line. My house was broken into once and there
were two other unsuccessful attempts. A neighbor came out of her house
one morning started her car and went back into her house for something.

A nigger (he earned that appellation) was loitering in a small park
across the street. He did the hundred yard dash, jumped in the car, and
drove off with it!

We now live in a much better neighborhood but we do not tempt our
neighbors or their children. We installed deadbolt locks, and we use
them without fail. Our neighbors think we're crazy but we will be the
last on the block, not the first, to have a breakin.

Don't get me wrong, I do worry about security. The fact that I use
four security cameras, with a system that monitors the video feeds
looking for movement in certain hot spots (doorways, etc.) all make me
feel safer.

But, as well, where I live things are relatively safe. Our state is a
free (open) carry state, and not too many people break into country
houses around here for that rason alone: they are likely to get their
tail blown off...

Sure free/open carry is good. But does your state law support Castle
Doctrine or does it have a duty to retreat law? If it has the former
you're good to go, otherwise not.

For how long ?

When I go out I don't even always take my mobile (cell to you) phone,
i.e. I take NO gadgets. Sometimes I prefer not to be disturbed.
