Actually, I do! But I can quote:

vandalize   Audio pronunciation of "vandalization" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (vndl-z)
tr.v. vandalized, vandalizing, vandalizes

    To destroy or deface (public or private property) willfully or maliciously.

vandalization (--zshn) n.

It's a lame excuse though, I did mean "vandalism".
Ciao,
Spokey

Absolutely true, we love to be told that. Suppose I pay some of my own wages too. Does that make me partially self employed?

Dictionary.com has Vandalization but given that we are using English and not American a search on http://www.askoxford.com/dictionaries/ gives nothing for Vandalisation
