Just a little of track.

Noticed Stirlos note

Silver in Africa Congratulations

thanx jim.

We have a street light right in front of house. Intruders in the yard are well illuminated, and yet, over the years, one or two have tried.

A few years back, I heard a noise and looked out onto the yard. A jerk was over near the car so I yelled, "Get on the ground or I'll shoot".



I can still smell his sneakers burning rubber!!!
No, I do not have a gun or any weapons at all.

We aslo once had a siamese tom cat that also acted as watch dog, and would wake us to let us know about intruders loitering outside. He used to gently jab our faces, and when we woke, he would get into the window and look out.

Many years ago I had a large black dog. It was jet black with large white teeth. One night I forgot to lock the back door before I went to bed. The dog opened the back door, came inside, down the hall and went to sleep outside my room. So the house is down a long drive way. It is pitch black and the back door is wide open.

Late that night someone came down the drive way, around the back of the house, up the stairs, in the open door and was just comming down the hall way when.... the dog woke up! It was so dark all they would have seen would be the teeth! Let me tell you a large dog in a confined hall way makes a sh*t load of noise.

By the time I got out of bed I could hear someone running up the drive way. The dog was still going nuts.

I found out later they robbed another house that night.

That one night the dog earned it's whole life time of food, vet bills, etc. many times over.

He must'a had ESP. !!!!! Critters are funny aren't they.

She didn't need ESP. She knew how to open the back door. If it wasn't locked at night or any time she was on her own, she would open it and come inside. When she got old I just let her sleep inside.
