Hagerstown or Frederick for the real bookstore? :)
that area was really sad sometimes...
I am soooooo glad I moved to Ohio when Ft. Ritchie got brac'ed
Lived there, too (Carroll Valley)
Recall that one country Lane near Caledonia...where EVERY mailbox has the same last name...
Sloping heads, missing teeth....

Time for you to place alot of signs on your yard, and either watch, or set up a camcorder, all night. When someone does it turn on the lights, and storm out with a bat!
You are so right about the clic of Waynesboro and the attitude about the school students. I have heard that from more than one person. They live in somewhat of a time warp. It is interesting.
We are here because my husband is retired and is into the Civil War, plus years ago during the impeachment we used to drive weekends from DC to Gettysburg to hike and get some peace of mind, and we fell in love with the quiet... I guess the quiet is deceptive...
The last I heard, Gettysburg has no police on duty after 5:00 p.m., unless you have an emergency and want to call the state police. That could be part of the problem.
Perhaps you should suggest that they put a piece of plexiglass over the front of the window.
Threatened rats are dangerous.
What a language, huh? Revered by some; reviled & cursed by others. "Whatever", indeed.
I am sorry you had to walk over broken glass

Someone else can split hairs about whether "attack" is the proper word to use.
If you want to stop the sign stealing .. set up a watch patrol in your neighborhood, or buy a little video CAM and set it up on your front porch and record who comes into the yard and takes the signs.
Take a copy of the video to the police. Call the media and complain. If you have a good ally in the media you can trust, give them a copy of the video. The public might recognize the persons doing the act.
Just a thought!
I agree with you Old Lady .. attack is the right word.
If it was just vandalism .. there would have been several stores with broken windows, or spray paint, etc. .. but they targeted just one place. I'd say that was an "attack".
Who's going to be first to crack a broken-glass Republican joke?
That's a good suggestion except we only own a camera. Maybe it is time to go for a camcorder and hide out on our porch.
You know who is responsible, those radical, right wing, Christians, trying to tell everyone how to think and what to do.=o)
Just because I'm "splitting hairs" doesn't mean I don't have sympathy.
I'm just tired of every situation being describe with the most powerful language possible. If a fire cracker goes off in Baghdad the AP article says, "MASSIVE!!!!!!! EXPLOSIONS!!!! ROCK!!!!! BAGHDAD TO ITS CORE!!!!!!".
Et cetera

I live in Hagerstown. It is Bush Country. If you're in Iraq, I would think any place in America would seem like paradise right about now, wouldn't it?
