Came in during the night, took about $2,500 worth of stuff from the garage and house. We think the dog scared them off when they started down the hallway. We were asleep.

  WE were robbed many years a go.  At that time we never locked our house.  We came home and the front door was open and the back door was to.  The refrigerator door was open and he had took the eggs out and thew them against the walls.

  He stole one of my guns and believe it or not he stole my wife's panties.

  His name was White and he was breaking in houses at night stealing anything small and valuable and food.  He would then turn up the thermostat on high and then leave while the people where still in bed.

  After he stole my pistol the police considered him armed and dangerous and really put out a search.  They caught him living in a hog house on a farm between Lapel and Anderson.  We never left the house unlocked again.   :eek: :biggrin:

We had the doors locked but not the overhead garage door. It was one of the big old wooden ones and very difficult to raise, we only locked it when we were out of town. That is how they got in. When we realized what had happened and call the police we found out several cars in the neighborhood had also been broken into. I wasn't particularly scared, because it was after the fact I'm sure, but I was royally pissed that someone came into my house and took my stuff! As far as I know they never caught the persons, but they did arrest the fence so we got some of our stuff back, mostly little things. I think our poor old dog was scared when they started down the hallway.

  ANNE, I checked on my earthquake insurance.  The coverage goes like this.  5% deduction on the cost of repair or replacement from an earthquake.  If it catches of fire during the earthquake and burns it is a $500 deduction

  My house is insured for $240,000 replacement, if it was totally destroyed in an earthquake it would cost 12,000 to get a $240,000 new home.  If it burn down it would cost us $500.

  I think I could really live with this.   :biggrin:    :bliss:       :bliss:       :bliss:

OAKTOWN - In a preliminary earthquake report, the United States Geological Survey says a magnitude 3.1 earthquake occurred at about 6:54 pm Thursday.

USGS described the location of the event as about 2 miles south of Oaktown, Indiana, a community situated between Vincennes and Sullivan.

No injuries or damage has been reported


A "shift" very near the New Madrid fault line. . . Could this be the "forecast" creeping closer to reality?

  Yes Sir, it might break up the drought down there in Rick Perry's god's country.   :biggrin:

I'd agree that Texas needs shaking up. I just wish it would do so in Western Texas. . . This one struck a little to close to home for comfort. . .

I've got a grandson in Texas at the AFB and some friends in western Texas so Texas doesn't really need shook up. :no:
