Would you like to see some video of a guy stealing a campaign sign from my yard?

Well, soon you'll be able to.

Kyobanim:

The video has been uploaded to your site. It is called FinalVideo1013.wmv. Would you be so kind as to post a link in this thread?

Martin:

I tried your site, but it does not allow .wmv files. If you change that before Kyobanim posts a link, I'll upload to your site.

I would like to see a video of a guy stealing a campaign sign from your front lawn. I would also like to see said guy getting his ass kicked!

Well done mate. I haven't been following the saga too closely, though. Has the gentleman been arrested and charged?

I have all my computers and all my TVs on and I am looking out the window. Still no video.

Ass kicked indeed. Y'know, I'm just up the road; if you, as counsel, are too civilized, I'm more than happy to head on down and do some dirty work for you (no comments about college boys, NDD ). In the interest of getting some good video, of course.

Cockgobbler.

Does anybody have some good image grabbing software? I can't get it good enough with just Print Screen.

Looks like that might be a Merc he's driving. Can't quite tell, though.

What's with the movement of the camera? Did you set the servo to rotate?

Huey, You can open the movie with windows movie maker that comes with XP. It's not great because of the file format but you can try to manipulate the image with it. View it frame by frame to grab what you want. If it was AVI we could get more detail.

Well, you have a video of someone taking the sign.

OTOH, that was one of the worst video shots I have ever seen.

What is with the jittery image and poor horizontal control?

Could have been Jason from "Friday the 13th" taking the sign.

Is the original any clearer? Maybe enough to pick up the license or his face?

If so, turn it over to the cops and Fox News.

Agree with Harsey, you need to update your coating so that the next one taking a sign and tossing it into a car has reason to regret it.

You have checked the block, nonetheless. Who had 15 Oct for the date?

The jittery image is something I have not been able to figure out, despite talking to some knowledgeable people including the supplier of the camera. The original is no better.

My kid, I believe based on your avatar, is calling you the "Army policeman" and asking if you are going to put the man who took the sign in jail. LMAO!!!

Well, if we knew who he was, and he lived nearby, I just might pay him a visit.
