I missed the part where their employees go through your stuff and steal something. (examples: playstation game, bag of candy, cd book, multi tool, etc.)

It works, we've put rolled up paper towels as wicks into cans of bacon grease to make "candles". Wouldn't really consider them candles as they never really fully harden and I wouldn't want to store them. We just used them outside while hanging out drinking beers since we didn't want to dump the grease down the drain.

I currently live in the Bay Area and this is the type of stuff that is making me hate this state more and more each day. This place is turning into a police state and no one seems to care. I need to get out of here before you have to have your papers in order to walk down the street or face the wrath of the gestapo.
