Lady Nicolette

My dog, Beau, who tries to kill anything and anyone approaching the house in any manner whatsoever if he doesn't know you.  And don't even think about coming close if you're wearing a chipmunk suit.

The Armory. LOL.

But actually the only things under the bed are a baseball bat embedded with a steel rod and my .357 magnum loaded with .125 JHP.

Two watchdogs who alert me to someone somewhere they're not supposed to be.  One goes directly to the source of the problem, giving me time to aim my 7 shot 357 six shooter and the other goes to the phone with the 911 button ready to press it upon command.

It helps when you dad was a gunsmith.

It also helps when you used to live in East Alton, IL (check a box of Winchester ammo sometime).

If I told you, I'd have to kill you...  ;D

Among other things, swords, longbows, firearms, cats with a 'tude, the ever popular a la "Laverine and Shirley" wrought iron skillets and depending on what kind of day I've had...ME with a 'tude....
I can be one of those "bad things" that happen to bad people.

There's nothing more frightening to an intruder than to see two naked chunky people with a wakizashi, a battle axe with a mace top, and a pirate cutlass. We make sure that if we have to go inspect something, we're nude and angry LOL.

I'd think if anybody was silly enough to ignore the old halloween postings that I did years back on the first two doors into the house ("Turn back now!" and "It's already to late....") with glow in the dark paint and the assorted halloween decorations kept around the house year round that they would understand I am a sick individual.

If they chose to continue with their folly I would attack them with nothing but my armor and my axe.  Because as Blue said nothing is quite as intimidating as somebody who is angry and nude...unless that person is well armored and well armed  ;D

Big hostile Chow/Akita watchdog....well the miniature dachshunds are the NOISE and he is the MUSCLE.
