(Personally, I don't care if he parks on the premises. I just don't want my tires stabbed.) And so we are looking closely at Bobby Klammes as the most likely culprit. In fact, I heard someone swearing viciously in the vicinity of Building 5, yesterday, and, after a few minutes, saw Bobby, leaving the premises, on a bicycle - still talking to someone on his cellphone, and saying incredibly vicious things that curdled the air. It boggles my mind that the other party did not hang up - it must have been someone close to him, the only person I've ever heard him talk to like that is his mom, and his girlfriend. I believe I actually have video of this, because one of my cameras was operating at the time, and pointed in the right direction. Who knows, maybe I even captured some audio.
