It's kind of hard to plow and plant with a sniper rifle....but it makes harvesting easy.

AH the crazy French. Growing up spending time in the summer at Grandmas camp just down the road, there was a camp made of glass bottles.
This place fascinated us kids. We spent hours a week sitting on its porch trying to see what was inside. Grandma told us that the camp had been built when she was a kid and belonged to a Canadian family. The place had been vacant for 30 or more years at that time but someone was paying the taxes .
How the place was built, the outside walls were made of cement with glass soda and beer bottles rammed into the cement so the bottom of the bottles faced outward, the neck of the bottles inward. The bottles were all the same size and of different colors. Clear, green, brown , and a dark red. We could not see inside as the shutters were closed and trying to see anything through the heavy bottoms of the bottles was impossible. We could tell that the bottles were empty and uncapped as light from the inside from the higher windows that had no shutters came through them, it faced west in mid afternoon.
Had this happend today in this generations we most likely would have broken in out of curiosity. One of the biggest mystery's of my youth was that camp, the cement was after all that time in good shape, none of the bottles we could see were broken or damaged in any way. I believe the spacing of the bottles was of great import, some master designer built that place.
This camp was 50 feet to the river, salt water and subjected to temperature shifts all year long.
The place was finally torn down 25 years later and a modern home replaced it.
So what had kept this bottle and cement camp from falling apart after all those years.?
Was the cement that stuff that is used to build bridges that hardens the wetter it gets ? Pharaoh cement developed thousands of years ago by the Romans ??

The people with anything worth taking already have plans in place to deal with such things.

Not necessarily. A lot of those people have no plan. They think that they will be able to buy their way out of trouble. :lmao:

Disagree, the drug houses have the pit bulls but no state of the art security system.
Most people are predictable they hide things in places anyone else would do.
Once in awhile people will set up security cameras in their homes that they can monitor from work. These are the few that get publicity when they call the cops when they see their home broken into.
