Bill owns a company that
manufactures and installs car wash systems. Magic
Wand Car Wash Systems just in case you want to buy one. Bill's company installed a car
wash system in Frederick, Md. for a gentleman.
Understand that these are complete systems including the money changer and money taking machines.
The problem started when the new
owner complained to Bill that he was losing significant amounts of money from
his coin machines each week. He went as far as to accuse Bill's employees of
having a key to the boxes and ripping him off. Bill just couldn't believe that
his people would do that. So they set up
a (photo) trap for the thief.
This is the coin slot
(with a bird's tail sticking out):
The bird had to go down in the machine
& back up to get to the
money:
That's three quarters he has in his mouth!!
Another amazing thing
Bill said is that it was not one bird; there were several working
together. Once they identified the thief, they found over $4,000.00 in quarters
on the roof of the car wash and more under a nearby tree. Either it was because starlings & many other birds love shiny things or they were saving up for their own car!!

We loved Thailand; it was fascinating!! There were Buddhist monks with their shaved heads & beautiful robes, elephant markets & the exquisite palace of the King of Siam. Our first few moments there, however, were not so great. There were many signs in
the airport warning travelers to watch out for pickpockets & con men. Later, at the hotel, we got a call from a man who
identified himself as our driver & told us our car was ready. That would have been fine, except we hadn’t as yet ordered a car!!
Carole sent me this video.
It fits here perfectly!!
