We have all experienced this issue at some point in our lives. Roommates, Coworkers, unenvied squatters. The reality of the situation is our food is being eaten and this makes us angry...but how? How can we avoid this? Simply:

"16 Dollar House" Squatter lives in $340,000 house for $16
Kenneth Robinson, 51, (calls himself) a real estate investor, had moved into an abandoned, $340,000 home in a Dallas suburb for $16 by citing a ridiculous law.
This guy paid $16 to file a one-page “affidavit of adverse possession” that essentially allowed him to move into the property, as long as he kept up the lawn, paid taxes and homeowner’s association fees. This guy did not purchase or owned the house in any way. The previous owner abandoned the house...
Robinson lived there for eight months during which he lived mortgage- and rent-free. Yes, he was then evicted after Bank of America (the real owners) finalized the foreclosure. He then turned his housing scheme into an adverse possession-themed cottage industry that resulted in a hot-selling, self-published e-book, “Open and Notorious: Kenneth Robinson on Adverse Possession" and now speaks to groups of people to teach them, in a sense, how to squat. You can actually purchase his book for $9.97 conveniently off of his website...16dollarhouse.com and (as I know you were all hoping) you can learn more about him...He will not say how much he has made from these books.

Alpacas are the Coolest!
Talking about Alpacas can always brighten even the worst days here are a few facts for you...
Alpacas are native to countries in South America including Peru, northern Bolivia, ecuador and Chile
Alpacas colors can vary from black, white, brown and gray.
Alpacas wool is water repellent and is used for making coats, sweaters and blankets.
Alpacas weigh from 100-175 pounts.
Alpacas live about 20 years
Alpacas are known to spit if threatened (just like Camels)
Alpacas typically produce about 5-8 pounds of fleece a year
Female Alpacas are called "cow" and Males are called "bull"
Alpacas are easy to train and are known to be domesticated
Egyptian Giant Solpugids (Camel Spiders)
Since you all seemed very interested in Camel Spiders I figured I would share some more information from a reputable source, National Geographic.
As previously mentioned in my other post the myth that these Camel Spiders eat large mammals is purely untrue. However, this article says they cannot outrun a human but also mentions they can run up to 10 MPH or (16 Kilometers per hour). I don't know about you but I would say if this thing can run 10 MPH it can absolutely out run me.
Apparently these guys aren't even real spiders. They are actually members of the class Arachnida but are actually solpugids.
I will include a quick fact breakdown from the information provided to make this easier for you all to read.
BAM!
