I get home from work and push open my front door and felt a bump when I did. A wine bottle was sitting in front of the door and fell over spilling a very nice Cabernet all over my carpet. WTF?

I then notice mail and a few other things strewn all over my floor. I go straight to my hiding place and grab my .45 and tactical light. I did a sweep of the house and find it's all clear. I then start an inventory and can find nothing else out of place or missing. Plasmas are all here, petty cash has'nt been touched, weapons accounted for, all is as it should be except for the wine bottle and mail.

Looks like some kids have discovered my place in the woods. I'd hate to have to kill them as they enter the house again, but I will.

wouldn't be your fault.....they wanna break in, they get ehat they deserve. pretty simple.
glad all was ok this time!

Mac,

Nobody's coming for your velvet Elvis, or Dogs playing poker prints. You're good to go.

I'm surprised there isn't some really low-rent trashy drink called "The Velvet Elvis".

What the hell would be in it?  MD-20/20 and O.E. 800?

Velvet Elvis

Chambord
¾ oz Chambord
2 oz Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey
squeeze of lemon
squeeze of lime
splash of simple syrup

Shake and strain over ice.



My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

RPM get a low-end burglar alarm---nothin fancy, just do the doors. (If you go wireless, the company will slap it in in 2-3 hours)It's so rare that burglars come in the window that it's statistically insignificant--(and if they DO come in window, first thing the dipsticks do is open the door) It doesn't STOP them from breaking in, but it limits them to about 46 seconds inside (assuming 45 second delay;) The real cost that comes from such things isnt your stereo or tv, it's these effing punks spending HOURS in your house trashing it. They don't know for sure if the cops are coming, but that possibility in the back of their head, and the frightful noise makes em get out of your house

Lol been in this industry for 25 years, residential burglars are not terribly bright---crackheads will break into house next door, then leave stolen items laying about. (Ya can't pay me enough to go into someone's house--I reached that point back in 80's)

Ya know, I've got an old Radio Shack Burgler Alarm with 2 remote motion sensors packed away from when I owned a store. It will dial out on landline when it goes off. That's it's only flaw, but it worked great until I switched to ADP.

Thanks for reminding me about it. :aok

If by flaw ya meant dial out over land line, a few companies make a nice cell-backup unit, but you'd have to hire a company to put it in, sign contract, etc, and they prolly won't want to tie into anything that came from Radio Shack; (Modern low-end control panel costs us about $40.00) Ademco makes one that can send specific stuff to your cell phone, like a text message

Why don't you use the 45 for a night light instead of the 9mm ?
