well you could if his tracker is rear wheel drive tape a washer to a string and put it on his drive shaft, that thing will make you much noise it will drive him crazy. then what else you can do is take a fish and tape it inside of his wheel that way the heat from the brakes will make a very pleasant aroma :D. After a couple weeks with that fish on the rim it will smell so foul that nobody will want to go anywhere with him, it will also make him look cheap because his car stinks. you could put his car up on blocks with the tires right next to the car and take 4 lug nuts with you, that way when he starts putting the tire on he realizes and still cant get home.

Welcome to life: losers piss you off. lol. That'll happen till you die or realize that they have power over you if you let them by pissing you off. Don't give them that power- don't let it piss you off. You reported him, he got what he got. Move on. Why do you want to deal with a loser any longer than you have to? The goal in life is certainly not to beat losers at any game or contest, but by spending your mental energy and time you lose no matter what the outcome. Look at boomintrunk's OR Stoney's response: what good does it do you, him, your friends, your future? NONE.

Stop by McD's when you get back from AIT
 
In your uniform...and wait for him to say ANYTHING, then ask the Manager why McD's allows it's employees to discriminate against the Military.
then file a written with the District Manager and then copy the HQ.

go back to Duty and he goes back to the street.

McD's does not like its people to discriminate against the Military as they have too many stores on bases all over the USA.

BTW-Best of Luck in AIT, and THANK YOU for Serving your Country!

Look, here's how it works:

As you saunter down the highway of life, you will come across more than your share of losers. Your options during these occasions are rather simple:

1. You press firmly upon your brake pedal and interact with the loser. The risk of this particular approach is that you may be induced into acting like a loser during the interaction. Rarely does anything good come of it.

2. As you approach the loser, you keep your foot on the accelerator and smile warmly as you pass him by and build distance between you and him. Well, ok, you can flip him the bird in the rearview mirror if you really want to, but never lift off the accelerator.

I'm willing to bet that you have productive goals in your life that preclude pausing to interact with a guy who will still be working the fryer at MickeyDees at 50.

Kind words, and the type of advise I've been wanting to hear.
I've got drill this weekend, I'm feeling hungrey for some greasy cow flubber allready:)


He's a cocky pos, and I want to knock him off his high hourse. Besides, it's cheap entertaignment...

tks all, good advise all around. I have made up my mind, and will continue to legally harass him as much as possible.
Gives me something to think about;)

With this response Paul C and most of us will pass you by and keep our foot on the accelerator and wave to you as we pass by...:vanish:

FWIW...I encourage you to forget it.

I know EXACTLY how you feel. I can't stand a thief either, but letting this grind you down is not worth your consideration.

Laying there at night getting no sleep and thinking up ways to get even.

I used to take on some big guys that stole from me when I was younger....I got the crap knocked out of me about the same as I knocked the crap out of them....my Sgt Major would get us in the ring to sort it in the army.

There are dozens of ways you COULD deal with him but it could back fire on you, as remote as that might be.

Imagine if he found you doing something while carrying !

Someone of his ilk will get his turn in the barrel one day.:smiley2:

I agree with the others that have suggested you be the better person and move on.
But-- if you're gonna remove the stem cores, squeeze the stems out of round with pliers so new cores can't be screwed in.

Take a pair of Vice-grips for the squeezing...

The other trick...get one of those "split-valve-inserter-caps" where you use the cap to remove the stem insert...unscrew the insert "just enough" that it creates a small leakage...barely perseptable...then loosely screw the valve stem cap back on...do it to all four tires...THEN squeeze the upper half of the stem...or the bottom half too...that way, if he manages to figure it out, he can't screw the insert in or out...and the tires may not even stay inflated...and the last time I checked, it runs about $10.00/tire to pop it off the rim, about $2.00/stem to replace those...w/tax...$50.00 and his time...if he hasn't managed to ruin a tire getting it to a shop.

And shove a few peanuts into his filler neck...let that crap "melt" and gum up his tank's pick-up tube, if not the whole fuel system...trying to run some cleaner through it will only make matters worse, if it does anything at all...

Or, as has been pointed out...your career in the military should be #1 in your thoughts...quit worring about Kid-Numbnuts...he's digging his own career-grave...don't get caught up in his misery...

Good Luck Nate...I hope I get to meet you on one of my trips up to your neighborhood...
