Home and Auto Is someone stealing my pool water? - Page 12

TripleThreat · 02:20 PM

No joke, have a neighbor who put in an above ground pool. Twice now, over night, my pool loses 2ft of water.

A leak would make sense if it was happening frequently and often... This is just two random times.

The first time I noticed it I looked over and his pool was full. This time, I look over, and its somewhat empty (some water) as if maybe he used my water to clean his pool?? I am thinking ill be getting a camera set up today.

EDIT: Update 24+ hours later, nothing yet.... He might think I am onto him... I'll give it a few days, regardless the camera is up and running.

. I'll take any story now.

I wish I could give you a conclusion to where my water went. I simply can’t.

If I ever find something on my video, I will label the thread as part 2, or if it happens in the near future I will update it here for sure.

At this moment I’m just waking up each morning with my coffee and orange juice running through the footage as my girl calls me paranoid.

Here's a picture I took at the time. The tiny dot in the sky on the right is the helicopter. You can also see a plane coming in on the left.

If the helicopters aren't using explosive rounds, I feel they're just not even really trying. You don't fight fire with water. Everyone knows that. You fight fire with fire. 'Murica!

It's obvious the culprit is a member of CP. Simply Red's been awful quiet lately.

Reminds me of a funny story. Years ago a guy at work bought a new car and wouldnt shut up about how great its gas mileage was. Some of us started to actually add just a little bit of fuel each week to his car and he was out of his head with joy that his cars mileage was IMPROVING. After a few months, we stopped adding fuel and this guy was livid. Took his car back to the dealer insisting it was having mechanical issues.

You have cured my insanity with this response.

Not good enough. We need an escalation.

Go over there tonight and siphon all the gas from his car.

Or let the air out of his tires.

Or put his patio furniture on your deck.

Or steal all the bird seed from his bird feeder--SOMETHING!

we want blood.

But has any more water disappeared at all regardless of what you are not seeing on the video?

God damn you. I saw this was bumped and was hoping it had been updated.

Based off of the OP's description of the incident, I'm 100% convinced that the culprit was a parched Sasquach roaming about. Bigfeet commonly enjoy consuming water from rivers or springs, but often times when they are driven away from their natural habitat they may resort to drinking from swimming pools or various other sources of water.
