The satellite guy came out today and fixed our dish (for free thank heavens!!) It turns out that the LNB thingy on the dish was broken off and because of that it sent a short through the wire and blew out one of the thingymabobs up in the attic of our house.
When the kids show up for their daily football game I am going to gather them around and say something like this:
"Sometime in the past week, this satellite dish was damaged. I don't know who did it and I don't want to know, but because of the damage I'm going to have to kick everybody out of my yard. One street over by the swimming pool there is a nice park with a big open field. If it's ok with your parents I suggest you go there but either way this yard is now off limits. If anything happens to this dish again I will have to find out who is responsible and have a talk with their sponsers. Please let your friends know that they will have to meet up somewhere else"
Any critiques on my little speech are welcome
We are also planning on putting up a fence but until we can do that, talking to them and putting up signs will have to do.
That is my game plan so far
