With the rising gas prices, there have been a rash of fuel thefts around here. People are getting their gas cans stolen from their sheds--fuel used for the lawn mowers and such. Farmers are reporting that thousands of dollars of diesel fuel is being stolen from the generators that are irrigating the fields and from the diesel fuel tanks. Some of them are using cameras that the hunters use for night time photography in hopes of capturing the thieves' images.

Perhaps it's time to invest in a lockable gas cap as well.
