hey chris, i wouldnt want to be you
i think the biggest thing is not to put your outgoing mail into the mailbox. when i moved into my house, all the PO's stuff i would just stick back into the box and raise the flag. i caught some poor bastard sneaking in, well my gfriend did. i yelled and threw a rock at him. what a dick.
i finally bought a shredder last week when bestbuys had the after holiday sale. it was like ENRON at my place.
oh, and i dont have multiple credit cards, i like to keep close tabs to all my activity.
