Copper stealing morons

The plumbing work, several hundred feet of it, stolen by the fuckers who broke into Diana's house, will cost about $1,100 to replace. As it turns out, a vacant home policy doesn't insure vandalism, which is what this is considered to be. Assholes.

The assholery isn't confined to Cleveland though. There was a story on the news about this, where these idiots stole the copper grounding wire on the fences around an electrical substation. And then, today we get a letter in the mail from our cable company explaining that the outages last week were from cut fiber optic cable... cut when thieves thought they were cutting out some copper wires.

What a bummer. Expect to see a LOT more of this with thousands of vacant houses now on the market never to be lived in again.

Several exurbs will become slums very quickly in this new economy of ours.
