Thre’s a car alarm going off across the street.  Been going off for like 10 minutes now.  All my wife can say is “somebody steal it already!”  I maintain that for this very reason car alarms don’t work: Nobody cares.  My wife didnt look, I didnt look, heck the owner figured it was somebody else’s and didn’t look either. Whens the last time you investigated an alarm going off?  Me either!
