Late last night, someone broke into a neighbor's car and stole his stereo radio. Jesse lives to the left of us, same side of the street, towards the corner...a grey colored brick house with a dark grey roof. This evening several of us stood out front of John's house, which is across the street from us, two houses to the left. We discussed the car burglary and wondered what we could do to prevent it from happening again on our street. Shortly after the start of the conversation, John looked around and asked where Cindy was...Cindy is the good looking school teacher. George said that he saw her come home and then leave, possibly going to the grocery store. Sorry, I guess I am getting off the subject just a tab.
We discussed many different ways to combat the possibility of another car burglary on our street. Finally Thomas, lives to the right of us three houses, made the best suggestion of the night. He suggested that we put a rattlesnake in a brief case, put the briefcase on the front seat of one of our cars and park it out on the curb...put it where a potential thief could see it. We all liked this idea! We then discussed where to get a rattlesnake, where to keep it during the day, and who would put it in the brief case. It appears that no one wants to be in charge of a rattlesnake. We were at a stalemate when I made the motion that the rattlesnake be kept in John's garage and that I would do my part by furnishing the briefcase. John became very vocal and strongly objected...threatened to no longer be a member of the group. Thomas told him that if he left the group that he would tell Carol about John having the hots for Cindy. We all started laughing, well John wasn't laughing, when Debbie and Carol walked up to see what we were talking and laughing about. I told her that we were just shooting the bull, nothing real important...I looked at John and he said, yes that is all we were doing, just shooting the bull. After they walked off and could not hear us, that darn John lashed out and said he was not going to be in charge of that rattlesnake and if anyone told Carol anything about him having the hots for Cindy that we would all sink together...he mentioned Thomas always working on her lawn mower, Jesse always washing his car when she was outside wearing short shorts and a tee shirt, and just mentioned that he knew that Butch had a spotting scope set up in his garage. Well, that was the end of the meeting.
I think this idea of putting a rattlesnake in a brief case is an excellent idea, but I need to find a way to sucker someone into keeping the rattlesnake in their garage during the day. Personally, I think it needs to be kept in Jesse's garage because it was his car that was robbed. We will probably get together this weekend and discuss it some more. Please have a great day!
