I just now met another Neighbor Lady,,Jen knocked on My door and said
She
broke Her key off in the front door..I grabbed a few tools and went to
help..I could'nt get hold of the broken part of the key with My
needlenose pliers and She wanted to just kick it in! I had one more
idea tho and picked up the small prybar I had brought with,,stuck it
between the door and jam right by the knob and pried against the jam
pushing the door one way and the jam the other way,,the door popped
open and just a dent in the wooden jam/doorstop for damage..She
unlocked it
from inside and I asked Her to test it to see if it still latched,,it
did so no more adjustments needed by Me..She and Her Boyfriend can
work on gettin the old key out or replacing the entry set with
new..That's My good deed for the day..
I shoulda told Her to get a deadbolt,,it's too easy to gain entry
there..

Are you sure the lady actually still lived there? And that it wasn't the
BF's house, and she was the ex, and the locks had been changed on her? Such
things are not unknown, and it would be awful hard to explain your
participation to a black-and-white that rolled up on the scene.
Just sayin'

I installed a security system for a guy many years ago whose sister had let
in some guys who said they were there to move some furniture for her
brother. Then she went to work. They cleaned out his house. they never
found any of it. boy did she feel dumb.

Understood and TY Guys..
If a Sherriff shows up I'll hand Em the tools and My Hikers so They
have the evidence to convict Me for helping a neighbor in need,,there's
a plain set of My tracks over and back!!I'll just tell Em what happened
if it comes up and let the chips fall where they may..The black n white
would have to be a white n gold Deputy Sherriff cause this town is too
small to have a police force..I get what Yer All sayin tho and
thanks..It's usually pretty mellow here..When I crank-up the old Bose
901s I'm about as loud as this town gets!! except for the one and only
bar accross the street occasionally.. On the few occasions when I
thought something was stolen I found it right where I left it later
on,,,all except one small compressor but I might have left that on the
jobsite,,I just dunno..My stuff being borrowed and not returned
tho,,THAT'S another story lately!!
Speaking of the 901s does anyone have a set of the same for sale? I
need two more for the back channels! Gotta make My classic rock(top
tracks DTV)reeeelly shine sometimes!

That would never be a problem for me. The cop cars here are blue and
white.
