Pinewood Derby race track?

Does anyone happen to know a local Cub Scout troop with a Pinewood Derby race track that I could borrow or rent in April?
 

Thanks!

For Sale- very cheap!

We have cleaned out our candle drawer here and have a ton of candles that we would like to be rid of....

A bunch of taper candles (10", in maroon, white, and navy blue)
several handmade shaped candles (santa heads, geometric catherdral thing)
five fluted glass votives (to hold tea light candles)
two ivory pillar candles (9"x3")
two glass "star" taper candle holders
two silver christmas tree tea light holders

We'd love to get $15 for all of it, but would take less if anyone wants to make an offer. This will be all or nothing, we're not going to split it up.

Drop a line here if you are interested.

Thanks!

Thefts on Belmont

So it's not exactly Davis, but close enough:  

When I went out to work tonight (Saturday), I saw a note posted inside the front door of my house.  There have apparently been a few burglaries on and around the Highland Ave. end of Belmont Street recently.  Apparently, my neighbors had a break-in the last day or two (didn't read all that closely), and it's suspected that the thieves had been watching the place for a few days.  They broke in through a ground-floor window, stayed for quite a while, and left with electronics, valuables, and cash.  Reading through Wicked Local, I kind of wonder if it's in any relation to these guys.  And if it is, why they're still out there.  

I'm not too worried, as I generally carry my most valuable/expensive/hard-to-replace possessions with me at all times and I'm on the second floor (and if anyone tried to get in, they'd likely fall over something right by a door/window and hurt themselves badly), but keep your eyes peeled.

Just a friendly reminder to keep your windows/doors/other entry-ways secured and re-up on your renter's insurance!
