Punks 3 – Me 0

Donna — Thu, 11 Jan 2007 21:41:56 +0000

The punks win. I give. On December 6th, they vandalized my mailbox. Two weeks later, they did it again. Today, the punks did it for the last and final time.

It’s final, because I give. There will no longer be a mailbox in front of my house. Instead, I’ll drive into town every day to go to the Post Office and get my mail at a P.O. Box. Of course, this means that there will be some things that I won’t be able to have delivered because some companies won’t deliver to a P.O. Box. But that’s just something I’ll have to live with. I just can’t keep digging holes and pounding things into the ground every few weeks.

So, the punks win. I lose. {insert lots of cussing here}

Mailbox vandals strike again

Donna — Fri, 22 Dec 2006 20:27:10 +0000

Remember the punks who messed up my mailbox a couple of weeks ago? They struck again last night. They even did this during a torrential rain storm. The kind that makes you wonder if the entire state is going to float away.

So I called the Sheriff’s department this time. I told the lady who answered that I wanted to report vandalism. She said to me, “Mailbox?”. I said yes. She then yelled loudly, “Got another mailbox!”. She next informed me that I was one of a long list of people who’d had their mailboxes vandalized, but the good news is that they’ve already arrested someone for it – a juvenile of course.

She took my name, address and phone number. Not sure why, really, but I’m just happy the little punk got caught. Mailboxes are cheap, but I still don’t want to have to replace it every few weeks, dangit.

Santa is NOT going to be bringing that kid anything good this year!

Dealing with punks

Donna — Wed, 06 Dec 2006 18:03:19 +0000

I’ve been living in a rural area for about 3 months now. A couple of days ago, some punks drove by and smashed my mailbox with a baseball bat. Now, I know how teenagers are…especially bored country kids. But it’s still irritating. Found this video today and it sums up how I would have liked to deal with the redneck punks who destroyed my mailbox.

UPDATE: Video gone. Oh well.
