my neighbors went away for 2 weeks and they have and adt alarm system. they asked me to bring in the mail and water there plants and stuff. they have an adt alarm and when i tried typing in the code the alarm went off. I finally got it turned off but i dont know if i left if i turned it back on? to turn it back on do you type in the code then hit away? cause when i did that it didnt say anything and i didnt want the alarm to go off again and since you have like 10 seconds to leave i left. how do you turn the alarm back on? is it suppose to say something?

OK, I live in the city so don’t have a ton to cover and my back yard is fenced, but I have a lovely neighbor, who is "insane" and he comes over when I’m gone and walks by and pulls out my plants, I raise and sell flowers. I don’t have much money but I’d like to buy some type of movement activated pinhole type camera and turn him in to the police. He is an electronics buff himself, so if I put it up I will have to make sure he can’t see it. This has been going on for years, and I’m sick of it. any suggestions ? I have no idea where to start but I want it legally on video. and so I can show it to him and show him I know what he is doing,. He does it in the day time but is very casual and sneaky about it as if he is picking a flower and pulls up the whole 3 ft. tall flower plant
in the summer about 3 years ago. someone came into my very exposed and open front yard and dug up a huge poppy plant between 10-noon in the middle of the day, I don’t think he would hesistate to dismantle anything he can see!!! But I suppose if he had to climb up on my roof, that might be a bit too obvious huh >?

Does my zombie escape plan have any flaws?




Ok, zombies will, eventually, become a real threat, and when that day comes we will all need to have an escape route. My plan is to arm myself in a light fashion in order to take the fastest and most secure route to a harbor, where I will find a boat. From there I will navigate my way to a remote island with enough wood and space for me too live for a while. I will also, of course, circle the island a couple of times and keep it under surveillance for a couple of days before "landing" there, in order to make sure it isn’t already inhabited by zombies. I will then make myself a home there, eating fish and whatever vegetables and plants that I find on the island. I will get water from rain and seawater that has been boiled and "cleaned" from salt.

After a year or so I figure that the zombies will have died from starvation, so then I will leave my haven on the island and return to the mainland. Before actually landing I will survey the shore in order too make sure that it doesn’t have any zombie infestation, and thus I will have survived the event. If the place still is infested I will just return to my island and come back later to check again.

Logically the zombies wouldn’t be able to swim or drive a boat. Perhaps they would be able to reach my island by walking on the seafloor, but I find this very unlikely as their lunges and stomach would fill up with water and eventually burst. Besides, why would they even try to get there, as they probably wouldn’t know that I was there?

It is my firm belief that an island really is the place to be during a sudden zombie infestation, because that is the one place they might not be able to reach. All other places is within their ability to get to, so if any place is safe then that would the island.

Besides the risk of starvation or death by thirst, and in some cases the risk of freezing to death, I really do not see any flaws in this plan once I reach the sea and find the secure island. But have I missed anything? And do you have a better suggestion?

So, I can’t seem to fine the number for my home security system customer service. I was wondering if they keep a log of when it is activated/deactivated. I was out of town this past weekend and I think my housesitter has been doing more than just watering the plants every other day..
