I'm not really sure what's going on with this car... but there's a lot of things that don't make sense to me. The placement of the lights in the rear window seems odd to me. The driver appeared to be retired and had a younger adult female friend. Non-municipal license plate and strange markings. I'm thinking it's a volunteer security car? Not really sure. Thoughts anyone?
If you want to use this image, ask permission PRIOR to use. Don't be a thief - under most circumstances, I'm quite reasonable.

so yesterday i posted a pic of my landlord measuring for the intalation of the secure mailboxes ... it occured to me i had never posted a pic of the security cams he put up after my car window was broken with a big rock. here's one. it points down the drive and covers the steps to the first floor porch and building entrence (maybe the whole entrence too, i don't know) and the other covers the parking lot. Go Kenny!

Quick! Call security! This one's had too much to drink! LOL Unfortunately for this little kitty she was battling a cold when we cruely set her up for this shot. She has since recovered though and is stronger than ever! Maybe it was that beer?

Proto-KGB agents, amidst preparations for Obama’s speech today.

Questions about the security of U.S. borders and effectiveness of U.S. border controls have been compounded by recent events in Europe and migration from Central America. However, political rhetoric obscures the complexity of North American border relations, which are actually dominated by the growth of beneficial and legal cross-border trade and travel.
On March 16, Foreign Policy at Brookings’s Latin America Initiative and Americas Society/Council of the Americas co-hosted a two-panel discussion exploring how new policies for the U.S.-Mexico border can balance the benefits of a continued rise of legal travel and trade with the simultaneous need for Mexico and the United States to work collaboratively to improve border security.
