Re: I Can't Believe this!

Skippr, I am truly sorry if my grammar or paragraph was not up to your standards. I strive to maintain a proper representation of the King's English, and if I failed to meet your expectations, I apologize to you and the other members of this forum.
I did not know that this was the forum for the fundamentals of sentence structure or tagmemics. Maybe you can start a separate thread that would investigate and scrutinize the miscalculation of grammar, spelling, and handgun supervision. All the Best, nedmoore.

Re: I Can't Believe this!

I was too busy trying to get my neighbor to shut up! I even told the guy not to go to my house across the street because we had "plenty of protection"

I Can't Believe this!

I had a great morning planned! Wife was tired and was going to sleep in, so I had some free time. Might as well go to the range and do some shooting! I got in my truck and headed out down the street, only to see some shady looking character going door to door with an alarm company yard sign in his hand. I decided to turn around and go back home and watch this guy for a while. I had my XD in an outside holster with my long sleeve shirt covering it. This is were this story gets interesting. This guy goes to my 80 year old widow across the street and knocks on her door, of course she answers it and I can hear her from my driveway telling him all about her alarm system at her house (30+ years old). And how her husband passed away a couple of years ago and he took care of the alarm! She even showed him the flashing light on the side of the house! I could not stand it anymore- I decided to make me, and my gun's presence known. I lifted up my shirt so the holster and gun was fully exposed and walked out to my mailbox. While "checking the mail" my neighbor saw me and shouted across the street "hello". I made sure the man that was going door to door could get a good a look at my side. I then covered my weapon with my shirt and headed across the street and made small talk with my neighbor and the salesman. He asked me "Do you mind if I ask who are you with?" I replied "I would rather not say" and then he abruptly left! I then proceeded to scold my old, widow, neighbor for telling some stranger about what, if any, security system that she had. I can only imagine how much information this guy got today going from door to door. What would you have done?
