[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3053575, member: 5412"] I do have to offer an example of why I didn't one time and posted it previously. When the current wife and I got married 30 years ago, my sons and I moved into her house, renting mine. She had a full privacy fence and doggy doors leading to the outside. I started missing tools from the garage, and it always happened when we were all gone, so my kids were not suspect. I figured it had to be one of the neighborhood kids(in a good neighborhood) as an adult would have a tough time getting in through those doggy doors, so I set traps every night when we were gone with tape and threads around the yard to see what direction he was coming from over the fence, and had one of the old time trail timers that used a thread across a trail with a digital clock. When the thread was pulled, it stopped the clock giving a time. The next weekend after getting some intel, I waited in the garage until midnight with the lights off. When I heard someone wiggling through the doggy door into the garage, I flipped on the light, and he was looking down the barrel of a .45. He instantly pee'd all over himself and started crying. Young teen that was selling to the local pawn shop for money. These days and times, kids his age are possibly armed. Back in those times, things were different. [/QUOTE]
