<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>I love when ADT salemen come to the
door! Evidently they don't see the metal dog gate
permanently</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>attached at the front door? Or do
they just choose to ignore it? I open the door and the salesman
is</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>met by 4 bassets (Izzy and Nelly Belle
hang back in the second line of defense) and husky Ruby Doo
all</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>loudly singing the "Stranger"
chorus. Sometimes I let the salesman proceed with his spiel of how I need
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>a security system to alert me if someone
should enter the house, giving me time to call for help.
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>So wait a minute here. The alarm
sounds and you call me to see if it is a false alarm giving the invader time
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>to escape or kill me if 911 takes too
long to get here? "Well uhhh we need to make sure it is not a false
alarm." </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>"Think how much safer you will feel
especially now that you are not able to get around as well. The crime
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>rate has been increasing in your area do
to the economy." Wow I didn't know that. Here I thought
that</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>if that was happening my neighbors would
have said something. Hmmmmm....interesting.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>So as the man stands there I say tell him
that we should go first through the benefits of my security system and
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>then he can tell me how his is so much
better. Lets go through this scenario as it now
stands. </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>Very Loud Alarm system - 6 bassets and 1
husky - check, Follow up to </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2
face=Antique>insure this is not a false alarm- Gang still
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>s</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2
face=Antique>ounding the alarm - check.
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>911 call - Send
ambulance and police. </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2
face=Antique>Invader was tripped by Abby Gale who went </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>belly up for a rub, Sadie Maye still
sounding the alarm at invader's </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2
face=Antique>and I believe his ear drum is punctured. Ruby Doo
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>has gone for the his arms and throat with
Bazzle biting below the belt. </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2
face=Antique>While I am waiting for everyone to show up, </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>Izzy is hiding under the bed
ready to run out of the room and trip him
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>in case he has escaped above
scenario make it into </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>my bedroom for safety. Of course
the gang is right on his heels. Nelly Belle next to Momma protecting
me (or is it the </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>other way around?). Momma quietly
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>waiting with
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>full clip in her 45 aiming for
middle of door (aka: hoping that will be </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>the center mass.) Check,
</FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>check, double check, triple
check of system.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>Follow up call to 911. "Just wanted
to find out how long before you get her? Okay....10 minutes. Don't
worry, no hurry </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>the i</FONT></STRONG><FONT size=2
face=Antique><STRONG>nvader is no </STRONG></FONT><FONT size=2
face=Antique><STRONG>longer moving. Oh no... I am too scared to see if he
is breathing. </STRONG></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>Interview with
officers:</FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>"No officers I live alone with just me
and the gang. </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>It all
happened so fast and I was scared for my life when he came running
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>in my room. I just knew he was
going to really hurt me. I can't really get away with an ankle
fracture. </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>I was sooooo
scared so </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>I pulled the trigger. He fell
down and was trying to get up. I was so verrryyyy verrryyyy
scared </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>by now that
everytime he </FONT></STRONG><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>moved
</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>I guess I pulled the trigger
again. I didn't realize that I emptied the
clip.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>ADT Security, "Oh I see Ma'am that you
really are not in need of a security system." Thank you for your
time." They usually can't</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>wait to get away from my house.
Bwahahahahaha Bwahahahahhaha!</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>In the event that this was not an ADT
salesperson then I just scared off a would be home invader.
Bwahahahahahahahahaha</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2 face=Antique>There is nothing like a home security and
alarm system!</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
