    Does this mean I am getting old, or just finaly smartened up a bit?

    Thank you everyone, I did talk to an officer, he said he was aware of how this cat operates and would go and find him and recommend that he not come bye any more. I guess it is nice to have some one else do the heavy lifting, and hopefully stop it all now. Thanks again everyone. Cliff
