True story: I discovered my mom owned a Colt 45 on Christmas Eve, 1991 when some crazed speed freak started pounding on our front door at about 9 p.m. and giggling hysterically. (We couldn't see out the peephole, as the wreath was covering it up.) She was in a pink bathrobe wearing bunny slippers at the time, too.
She spent the next hour pointing it at the door while Mr. Speed Freak pounded, giggled, and apparently got bored and wandered off about 15 minutes before the cops showed up. Made quite an impression on 15-year-old me.
Oh, how I long for the good ol' days, when burglars cared enough to dress in three piece suits before they broke in to my house through an open window. It was all so much more genteel back then.
"Oh, so this isn't a rehearsal hall for the barbershop quartet? My apologies, madam. I will be riding away on my bicycle with the enormous front wheel."
Morpheus like in the Sandman graphic novels? Because I wouldn't mind being wrapped in his arms, even if he is kind of a snob and has a tendency to mope.
@Annabellie: omg, if I could heart you again for that I would! My boyfriend gave me the entirety of Sandman on a thumb drive and I stayed up into the wee hours of the night reading it. Marvelous!
@happysquid: Indeed, he's quite dapper, being dressed in the height of ruffian fashion and his hat may look sharp, but surely he will resort to fisticuffs or a tussle, if challenged.
So that thing is for shooting Morpheus so you never have to sleep then? I'm confused because I thought back in those days they could just come right out and say they were selling uppers.
I tend to overshare with certain friends. But these are friends I've had for 4 years and up. Everyone else, though, I really don't want to hear things like this from them.

Brushing teeth pre-contact can cause bleeding gums - and increased exposure risk. Not advised.
MOUTHWASH - it's the way to go, to help kill the bad stuff, before it creeps into yer cooter.
