Talkin' about bastard kids...
I used to work with a guy who had a bastard neighbor kid. One month, Kim's (yes, the man's name) water bill was excessively high. So high, the water company called to warn him. So he called a plumber to inspect, and nothing wrong was found. So they waited another month.
Next month, same thing. Another plumber couldn't find anything. So Kim got his mother-in-law to hide in the house while he and his wife went to work-they usually returned around 5:00.
Bastard neighbor kid got off the bus at 3:00 and went straight to Kim's water hose. Ran it to the storm drain, then turned it on full blast. At 4:30, he turned it off and neatly coiled the hose before returning it to the hanger. He did this every day for nearly two months...
Is the tire on a steel wheel? Check for rust in the bead. I had a tire that would go flat at the oddest times. It would stay up for several weeks and then go flat overnight then stay up for another week or two. Drove me nuts. Turned out there was rust in the bead. Had the tire pulled cleaned the bead and it hasn't been flat since.
So THEY'RE who loosened the salt shaker caps at my table at that Denny's.

There was a major recall not too long ago on Chinese valve stems. I had some on my new trailer tires that I needed to replace within a year. They were severely dry rotted.

I see the world is a changed place once Master Suddard gets the reins....
I vote armadillos. They tapped your WiFi, found out what you have planned for them and have fired a warning shot across your bow.

Had a neighborhood kid get mad at me when I was young cuz I beat him in tetherball for weeks straight..and regrettably I wasnt a gracefull winner (no joke, I was good ). We went on vacation a few days later. People across the street watched him kick in the window to our basement, insert the end of the garden hose just inches away, and turn it on WOT. they went over and shut it off, luckily our basement wasnt finished, and he did a great job of soaking the bare block wall for about 2 minutes. No damage, but what if blah blah blah...
Moral of the story...dont sandbag in bush league tetherball, if youre good enough to go pro, dont hang around in the farm league
It's because you don't have nitrogen
