Okay it's chilly down here in soutern Florida. (Well chilly for us.) It's supposed to get down to 34°F tonight.

We got home from work and turned on the heaters. The place was warming up nicely as I sat at the computer wearing sweat pants and sweatshirt. Then the power went out. Grumbling I went into the bedroom and checked the Breakers even though I wasn't running anywhere near enough electrical heaters to pop them. What I found surprised me. Three of the breakers had popped at the same time.

I reset the breakers and watched as the lights came back on. I was heading back to the computer when the breakers popped again. This time I heard something curious. When the power went out the wife of my next door neighbor started yelling in Spanish. When I reset the breakers again she stopped.

For the third time the breakers popped and again she started yelling. Now I was getting curious, something was up. Grabbing a jacket I went outside and started looking around. Much to my surprise I found four extension cords running from my outside sockets into the night. Following them I found they stretched across the yard to my neighbors place. OKay this just isn't right, their playing leach off my electrical system to heat their place.

I went inside and told my wife we would have power back in a minute or three as I dug through my tool box. Back outside I went and started unplugging the cords. I coiled the cords as I walked across the yard while listening to my neighbors wife screeching. When I reached the cracked open window the cords were running to I stopped just long enough to cut the cords there before returning to my place with the coiled cords in my arms. Once back inside I dumped the cords in the back room and switched the power back on.

My neighbors wife is still screeching, I have my power back on and I have some power cords to put new female plugs on.

ah ha ha ha...

So, are these people replacements for the family of porkers that moved in a couple years ago, or are they still there as well?

Nope,

Sisters Huge moved out last summer to go and live with Mommy and Daddy in Texas. Their place is still empty.

No these are the Mexican Rednecks I write about from time to time. The ones with the Salmon Pink Trailer with the Bright Blue Shutters and trim.

CAT obviously doesnt appreciate the concept of MI CASA ES SU CASA! and requires some remedial Diversity Appreciation Training.

We get that alot here in this neck of the woods too. It's not enough when they start living as squatters on somebody else property. They have to steal someone else's electricity too.
 
I doubt it has much to do with their race, and more to do with the fact that they are south florida trailer trash. :rolleyes:

You won't find many people like Cat in those circs.

Here now I resemble the first remark. If you're not careful I'll sick the attack Chihuahua's on you. (They'll chew your shoelaces to pieces and piddle on your feet.)

OKay when I arrived home from work last night I found a notice from the local Police ordering me to contact them about a case. (Like I didn't know what that was about.) I also found several brand new cords plugged into my outlets. I called the police and told them to come on out.

When the officer arrived he was invited in. I answered hsi questions while being informed I was being investigated for theft of and destruction of private property. Before he could tell me what the property was I stopped him and told him to follow me. We stepped out onto the patio and I pointed out the cords sitting on the table with their ends cut while asking him if that was the property. He agreed it was and asked what was going on so I told him. He didn't seem to believe me so I asked him to follow me. I led him to the outside outlets and pointed out the exptension cords plugged into them. He kind of shrugged as he looked at the cords as if to ask why I was showing him my own extension cords.

Reaching down I grabbed one of the cords and reeled in the slack before giving it a good yank. In my neighbors place we could hear them start yelling and the cop looked at me in surprise. He told me to get the cords from my patio as he wandered over to my neighbors place and knocked on the door.

Within minutes my neighbor came over and with a very unhappy look unplugged his new cords and gathered them up. I carried the cut cords over to his place and dumped them on his patio as his wife chattered at me. (Man was she pissed.) The officer informed them, in SPanish, that if they did that again he would personally come out and arrest them. He then informed me that he would have the case closed.

This morning I watched as they carried in not one but two Kerosene Heaters. (I didn't know they still made them.) I'm almost afraid to wonder what's going to happen next, hopefully nothing.

Hopefully nothing...but yeah, keep your fire extinguisher handy.
 
One thing, Cat. I don't care what you've been told, 'Besame Coolah' ISN'T how they say 'good evening' in Spanish. If your power stealing neighbors come calling, just speak American.

Hmmmm not one that I've heard. Got a translation?

Cat
 
Besame means 'kiss my.'
Coolah means 'ass,' not rear end, not backside, ass.

Ahhhh, thanks for that.

My usual greeting from my neighbors is Good Morning Pandeho. :rolleyes: I usually smile and wish them a good Morning while calling them SHit Head in German.

That's pendejo.

I always just nod and reply, politely, 'Tu madre.' (Literally 'your mother.') Usually it leads to a knife fight.
