Preemptively Foiling Burglaries In The Philippines

I never thought of this... but it is funny and might just work as a way to keep burglars from considering my house as a target in the future. Posted by First Sergeant Mike on my Yahoo CDO Group:

If you remember when I first moved to Mega Heights, I borrowed a pistol and fired three shots into the ground about 2 a.m. When the neighbors came out, I was scouring the ground. "No blood. I missed him THIS time, I'll get him next time." Things were peaceful in Mega Heights for the next six years.

I think that "the crazy Kano who lives on the corner has a gun and almost killed a burglar" story would be on every tongue and in every ear in the village by mid-morning the next day.
