Today's Columbia newspaper had 5 classified ads for Mercedes. The first one
was for a 1984 300D for 5 grand. the others ranged from 1996-2006. The thing
I found interesting was that all of them were diesels. Just a fluke I guess.

Hi Bill,
When certain people want to pass more restrictive gun laws they always say,
Why do you need a gun? If a crime occurs just call the police! Well,
duh - Bill just found out why that's absurd. Some of us would like to see
our lives protected *before* our throat is cut! But we're expected to turn
over the protection of our lives and possessions to a police force that
can't be bothered to protect us (I know it;s not our policeforce's fault).
They don't even want to fill out the freakin' paperwork!
Now, Bill is going to lose the value of his car as well as his time to get
it fixed or the time needed to replace it depending on his choice of
repair/replace.
This comes at a time when Az is considering legislation making it illegal
for someone to observe someone doing something illegal while armed - in
other words - the Minutemen who are trying to stem the flow of illegals
crossing the border are being sent a message - don't come to help guard the
border if you plan on being able to defend yourself should you be attacked.
Could things get *more* ridiculous? Why are there people in this country
hell-bent on turning our personal security over to a police force that is
over-worked, under-paid, ill-equipped, etc., etc. ??
Geez. And, Bill - I'm truely sorry a crowd of nitwits had nothing better to
do than destroy your property. They should be picking up trash along the
highway - or shoveling snow from same highway -one little shovel-ful at a
time.
Why can't our politicians think of this kind of solution?

So sorry about the car. That is sort of thing that I am sure all of us
worry about with our much loved cars. Frustrating as it is to discover
the
limits of actual 'enforcement' [I caught someone breaking into my car and
got a description, plate #, abandoned tools and hair sample stuck to the
mirror - all the cop wanted was to know who to send the report for
insurance], I have been in enough other places to be happy that I am here.
To steal a good line, It is the worst imaginable system, except for all
the
others.

my 79 280CE was vandalized to the point of destruction this weekend by
