The car has no license plates, but a Temporary Movement sticker in the window. Called the police, I read the VIN number to them, and they said the car's owner was a long distance away, and there's nothing they can do????????????????????

So, what to do?????????
Call your local politician. And keep calling. Get all your neighbors to do the same. A nuisance can be dealt with if you can raise the local pol.

If that fails you get a big crow bar and open the hood. Then disconnect the battery. After an hour or so you normally have lots of volunteers to lean on the bar for you.

Never suffer...get even.

Haven't heard it now for over 2 hours, so perhaps the battery died! I hope so!

So we got an offer from MGM Grand for three free nights from Nov through mid Feb 2013. No restrictions on the offer that I can see. I called to book a room for Dec 30 for 3 nights. The VIP services rep tells me that those dates are excluded. I tell her that my email does not show blackout dates. She tells me that the small print gives the casino the right to amend the offer. Ah ha! We don't wager enough. She offers to give us discounted rates for a non guaranteed room with a non guaranteed view. I tell her no thanks since we can get a guaranteed room with a guaranteed view through VRBO. I think these casinos are making the wrong gamble in this economy. I will be staying at the MGM Signature but I will not spend one dime in gambling, shopping, or dining at the MGM Grand.

Default "Las Vegas In My Mind"

In my mind I'm going to Las Vegas. Can't you see the sunshine, can't you just feel the strip lights shine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine, to hit me from behind. Yes I'm going to Las Vegas in my mind

Shelby she's the golden sun, you best walk her way and watch it shine
watch her watch the morning come
A golden tear appearing now I'm crying ain't I? I'm going to Las Vegas in my mind

There ain't no doubt in no one's mind that love's the finest thing around
whisper something soft and kind
And hey babe, the sky's on fire, I'm dying ain't I? I'm going to Las Vegas in my mind

In my mind I'm going to Las Vegas. Can't you see the sunshine, can't you just feel the strip lights shine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine, to hit me from behind. Yes I'm going to Las Vegas in my mind

Dark and silent late last night, I think I might have heard the highway calling.
People in flight and coyotes that bite.
And signs that might be omens say I'm going, going I'm gone to Las Vegas in my mind

Now with a holy host of others standing round me, still I'm on the dark side of the moon.
And it seems like it goes on like this forever, you must forgive me
if I'm up and gone to Las Vegas in my mind.

In my mind I'm going to Las Vegas. Can't you see the sunshine, can't you just feel the strip lights shine?
Ain't it just like a friend of mine to hit me from behind? Yes, I'm gone to Las Vegas in my mind.
Gotta make it back home again soon, gotta make it back on home again soon,
gotta make it back to Las Vegas soon, can't hang around, no babe, gotta make it back home again,
gotta make it back to Las Vegas soon...

Best wishes to you Davie. You know the traps that caught you last time so you are better prepared this time around.
