Stealing a $7.99 Lawn Sprinkler

Post by Hungary Jack »

It appears someone made off with the cheap lawn sprinkler I use to irrigate the 10 x 10 patch known at my front yard. What on earth someone would want with a sprinkler in my neighborhood is beyond me, especially since the most likely culprit is a renter from the apt. building next door, which has no lawn. Perhaps the cast iron base will fetch $.23 on the red-hot open market for scrap steel. Perhaps the thrill is pilfering a cheap sprinkler is too overpowering for rational beings. Perhaps Mayor Daley's secret army of zombie control Nazis has infiltrated my street...

I too, had one stolen from a yard in a small town I lived in. But it wasn't a $7.99 job...it was a nice Gilmore sprinkler that ran about $18. I was mad as heck. Also, no one in town carried a replacement, so I had to order a new one off of the interwebs. What a jagoff.
