WG and Icarus' Auto Protection Solutions

[icarus]

After the break-in, which was most likely a failed attempted theft:

Auto-protection solutions!

icarusancalion: We could run 9,000 amps through the body of the car.

wildernessguru: I'm thinking we should take off the distributor cap.

icarusancalion: A live cougar in the back seat?

wildernessguru: And a silent alarm. That way I can break their legs while they're under the car trying to get it to work.

icarusancalion: My dad had a kill switch.

wildernessguru: In South Africa they had so many car jackings, the government approved two propane tanks under the hood. You just hit a switch and it shot flames out the side. I want one of those.

icarusancalion: By the time we're done, this is gonna look like Mad Maxx.

I met a guy who'd done, well, not quite that, but close. He was a mechanic, and people had broken into his truck and stolen thousands of dollars worth of tools on two occasions. He researched California law and discovered that he could legally install a system that would give an extremely nasty but non-lethal jolt of current to anyone who tried to break into his truck just as long as he had a warning label on each side of the vehicle.

The next time somebody tried, the cops found the perp at the emergency room with a nasty electrical burn on his hand.

He had the biggest grin on his face while telling the story.

Anyway, sorry to hear about your unhappy experience. Hope it's a one-off.

I love that. :D *evil chuckle*

Same here. But we're prowling our car as if the thieves are at the gate.
