What To Take To Bed With You

I got this email today and wanting to share with are members,


Good Idea!



What to take to bed with you - not a joke


Pretty neat idea. Never thought of it before.


PUT YOUR CAR KEYS BESIDE YOUR BED AT NIGHT

Tell your spouse, your children, your neighbors, your parents, and everyone you run across.

Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies

This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of this:

It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or until you reset it with the button on the key fob chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage. If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break into your house, odds are the burglar rapist won't stick around. After a few seconds all the neighbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal won't want that. And remember to carry your keys while walking to your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the same way there. This is something that should really be shared with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or a sexual abuse crime.

P.S. I am sending this to everyone I know because I think it is fantastic. Would also be useful for any emergency, such as a heart attack, where you can't reach a phone. My Mom has suggested to my Dad that he carry his car keys with him in case he falls outside and she doesn't hear him. He can activate the car alarm and then she'll know there's a problem.
Please pass this on even if you've read it before. It's a reminder.

The same might not be true of the crook if caught.

This is a good idea. I live in an apartment so I can't really make us of this.

A) My car doesn't have an alarm, or a fob of any kind for that matter (no power locks/windows).

B) I have a steel door with a handle lock, a deadbolt, and one of those U-shaped door catches like you see in a hotel.

C) I now have a maverick 88 12 gauge under my bed. Number 8 lead shot.

I think I should be good.
