This is a Red Flag

The streetlight is out in front of our house again. I'm concerned because twelve tires have been slashed on our street in the past two months. And I found a bunch of Fruit Stripe gum wrappers in the front yard a couple days ago. This is a red flag to me. It's like if I found a "serviette" in the front yard. I'd have nightmares of a Canadian crouching in my bushes with a sack of crullers, politely wiping his mouth and preparing to pounce on my unsuspecting steel-belted radials. My wife thinks I'm nuttier than the Queen of the Pecan Festival, but it's my job to protect the family.

I also saw a guy with a thick handle-bar moustache walking slowly up our street last week. He looked like the type of guy you might see playing the recorder in a gypsy caravan, if you catch my meaning. Definitely not from around here. He was carrying a leash, but I didn't see a dog anywhere. And he was carrying an old Underwood Five typewriter, but he didn't look like a cub reporter. The whole thing was sort of like a kangaroo with a calculator -- it didn't quite add up.

I just don't want to get caught napping, like when the Avro Canada C102 was beaten into the air by only 13 days by the de Havilland Comet, thereby becoming the second jetliner in the world. I bet Avro Canada didn't see that coming.
