With this, and the reports of armed robberies in city parking lots---does anyone know if it is the same lot over and over, or the time, or circumstances? I want to stay safe but I don't want to avoid downtown entirely!

I don't want to sound dramatic, but I believe a lot of the robberies going on are a direct result of that Doctor "candyman" getting arrested. I knew many people who went to that guy to get all their drugs, and since they were on SSI they got them for free and in mass quantity. People are now addicted to synthetic heroin like Oxycontin and Norco and need to steal to pay for their addiction or just not be sick. It is simple supply and demand. As far as the parking lot robberies, not sure what is going on with that. Seems pretty scary someone is out there with a gun robbing people in public for a few bucks. Might want make sure your more cautious, and keep a cell on you. He will get picked up quick doing robberies like that, don't not avoid places, it is random and we cannot let one man dictate where we go. It sucks to have to be more on guard, even going out to run an errand. Somebody will pump these punks full of lead, all it takes is robbing wrong house or car.

Roger, you might want to give Pooh a thorough frisking in case he's concealing that bauble. If he's clean, follow him around to see if he's spending more than usual. Could have been paid off to act as a decoy. I learn these things from watching old movies. Soon I will learn how to keep from locking myself out of my own house when going into the yard, but there was no evidence of any progress on this project yesterday. My worst case scenario is to eat seeds from the bird feeders and drink the hummers' sugar water if it's a long time before help will arrive. Cats watched through a glass door to see if I'd do it. I didn't need to.

Always happy to make somebody's Friday, TIS. As for that pond, Roger, you were probably bitten because you weren't wearing your water moccasins. Pooh may not need those little extras but if he's a klepto he can't help himself. Our first Siamese used to collect things (I swear: fly-swatter, automotive lug-nuts, walnuts, a fetching-bone) and hide them behind a living room sofa. Check the furniture!

Ive been looking all over the place for that darn thing. I suspect the neighbors roommate but I'm probley wrong..It weighs alot he couldn't lift it. I used to have a girlfriend that was really down one day and her cat, Harvey bought her alittle tiny Felix the Cat stuffed animal. That really freaked me out. Everytime I slept over he would attack me. That cat hated ny guts...I had a water moccasin come after me once in Hammond of all places. I never knew there were posion snakes there..I was swimming in a ditch trying to help a buddy out and this sucker camw after us..Holey Baloney I moved.

Sweet Harvey, even if he didn't like you. He was just being alpha and didn't want you horning in and taking over. I am making a note this minute to remember never to swim in ditches in Hammond. Yech, poison snakes!

There's big ditches in Hammond you could hide a car in one..I read one time they sent some divers down off a pier in East Chicago. They found guns, washers, dryers, 7 cars 2 occupied one was a police car with the missing cop still behind the wheel...North West Indiana is a crazy place with crazy people Hell I'm from there..
