    That is a nice offer Brother. But the system is not finished yet and if it is finished I have plenty of grandkids to test it on.

    I put a few of those in the backyard. Very effective I must say. Thanks again for the tip.

It looks impressive. One of my sons started on installing it all now. He is a tad slow at the moment but with a good kick I am sure he will have it working in no time.

    EDIT:

    Never mind, seems that's the end of that. Well, you always have the bear-traps.

    That's what servants are for. I'm always telling my 14 year old Indonesian houseboy to "gopher this" and "gopher that."

    If the sprinklers aren't efficient enough, you could always just set bear-traps and if the neighbors complain tell them it's because of moles ruining your lawn.

    I've been setting bear traps for a while and a kid hasn't step foot on my lawn for years. Occasionally at night I'll hear a muffled shout and look to the window to see some teenager limping away into the woods.

    Thank you, I ordered 12 of those now. Unfortunately it will be a while before they arrive.

    This little gemsells for less than $100.

    Of course, there's always signage.

    Rev. Jim, you had some great times as a kid. I sadly lived near NYC. While we had some uprisings, they were far and few between as many of the decent people, the White folk, felk that the nigras deserved more. I felt then and do now, the mere fact that we let them live is a lot. But I digress.
    Living where I do now, we get no nigras passing through. Either they work for me (and I keep a strict eye on them at all times) or they do not live nearby. The closest thing we have to the fun you had is with the messicans. If I do not need any day workers when at Home Depot, I turn on the siren in my truck and yell "Immagracion!! Immagracion!!" To see them run as fast as they can, hoping the fence, running (sometimes limping) across Rt. 81, dodging the trucks passing at 80 mph is great for a few laughs.

    One of my sons figured it out. It seems Contech makes those sprinklers with motion detection. Time to order some of those.

    High pressure water works wonders repelling undesirables. I remember being a lad of 15 and visiting my uncle down in Mississippi, and there was all these unruly negroes in the streets. Well, the cops and firemen wouldn't have any of that and washed them away with firehoses. They scattered like roaches.

    My cousin was a firefighter at the time and he let me help him hold the hose. We got some old negress straight in the head and the pressure of it knocked her to the floor. I don't think she got up after that. Ah, fun memories!
