Roofs? Why?
|
||
------------
|
||
|
||
The law calls it Tresspassing. We, in our circle of friends, call it roofing.
|
||
It is the art of exploring Roof-tops, and generally creating havoc, while up
|
||
there. Havoc the Chaos (rip), was the one who enjoyed roofing most, but he is
|
||
not here to present this file. I felt that roofing was a sport, and the high-
|
||
light was not to get caught. We have been "caught" by the police, and other
|
||
various peoples while exploring, but it's really been no big deal. On with some
|
||
ideas...
|
||
|
||
Creative!
|
||
---------
|
||
|
||
The first thing you have to do, although it is rather obvious, is get on top
|
||
of the roof. Usually, one can climb the pipes on the side/back of the building.
|
||
Some of them can be quite hot, so be careful. We have figured many creative
|
||
ways to get on top of roofs, including climbing a nearby roof-top and jumping to
|
||
the other roof. (This can get sometimes- dangerous.) It depends what type of
|
||
roof you want to get on. We began inhabiting roofs of small department stores,
|
||
causing some vandalism up there, like shorting the signs, breaking the
|
||
skylights, and turning the air conditioners on and off. One thing that Havoc
|
||
the Chaos and the Moon Roach overlooked (sad) was the fact that there were
|
||
people inside the store while they had fun. The local police department had
|
||
quite a short talk with them. We went on to bigger and better things...
|
||
|
||
K-Mart was a roof that we visited quite often, and we had a very sadistic
|
||
approach towards this store. Taking long, floresicent lighting tubes from the
|
||
nearby dumpster, they would toss them down into the garden center. This was
|
||
humorous, to a point. "Payless" was also interesting.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Insanity?
|
||
---------
|
||
|
||
We actually did get on the roof of a local shopping mall. You see, this
|
||
particular mall (known in Sunnyvale, as "Vallco", by the way) had a japanese
|
||
restraunt near the upper level, which you could enter through the outside of the
|
||
mall. It had a nice grid-type pattern, which we climbed up (at 4 o'clock in the
|
||
morning) and accessed the roof. The view was nice, although it was dark and
|
||
quite foggy. Sonitrol (tm), which was discussed in eariler text-files, is a
|
||
sound-detecting device, that was present on top of this mall. When roofing,
|
||
beware of these little buggers. They resemble long, metal sprinkers, and in the
|
||
dead of night, it's quite easy to trip over them. We ended up distroying an
|
||
antennia, nothing else. Remember this, when roofing in the early morning, !get
|
||
off! the roof before the sun rises. We had quite a scramble getting down.
|
||
|
||
Abandoned Buildings?
|
||
--------------------
|
||
Abandoned buildings, despite what your fourth grade teacher told you, can
|
||
prove to be interesting. We've found many useful things, such as spray paint,
|
||
nails, and even small pieces of machinery. Spray Paint is fun, but you must
|
||
remember not to go overboard. (I think that Havoc was crazy spray-painting
|
||
"Anarchy!" in the bathrooms of the local fast-food joint...) The most
|
||
interesting abandoned buildings are un-used canneries, warehouses, and storage
|
||
buildings. These don't !usually! have security guards, but we have stumbled
|
||
upon many of these people.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Guards, Cops, and others!
|
||
-------------------------
|
||
You've been caught. Big deal, all they generally do is ask for your name. Of
|
||
course, my name was different every time I was caught. Just play it really
|
||
cool, and if your wallet is not in plain sight, then say you don't have id.
|
||
Security guards won't detain you, unless you've done some obvious vandalism.
|
||
They want your name and phone number, according to another guard, to call your
|
||
parents !if! any vandalism has been done. You must be good in impromtu and be
|
||
quick about it. (The Moon Roach and I lived on "Penny Lane" and "Abbey Road".
|
||
That's irony, mind you...Hahaha...)
|
||
|
||
|
||
Why, though, why?
|
||
-----------------
|
||
I really don't know. Roofing, like exploring, is adventurous, and fun...to an
|
||
extent. If you are the type to be scared of heights, and not into senseless
|
||
violence, then don't bother with a sport such as this. Enjoy.
