A clean start, now that all the kiddies have gone home from their wild band camp summer vacay, includes keeping on the alert, because, as PowerWorld security will tell us, most crimes are preventable with a little bit of horse sense.
Okay, kids, we want to see the outdoor lights on nice and bright, and the drapes closed. The only ones who wanna see the bright lights indoors, with with or without drapes drawn, and all of your stuff that they tried to scope out during the day while you were letting the sunshine in, are ne'er do wells. Got whiney neighbors who don't like your outdoor lights? That's why the good Lord invented drapes to block them out. The band camp board will promptly practice what we preach, since we know better, and shame on anyone who gets sloppy about the calm after the party.
