I just went out to my car maybe two hours ago to go home and throw on the new Falken Azenis, when I find some bastard has broken in and messed up the steering column in an apparently failed attempt to steal it. I call the campus cops, they lifted some fingerprints (by the way, I didn't used to think so, but thumbs up to UMBC cops), now I'm having it towed to my house. At any rate, be extremely careful parking your Honda/Acura at UMBC, theft is ridiculous there, use a club (the other cars that have been broken into all had high-quality alarms/theft systems) or something, and I'm looking into buying some kill switches and a Lo-jak or something. Anyone know where to get one around the Ellicott City/Columbia area, a reputable shop or anything?

If only I'd caught him in the act...
