Many years ago I lived in a two story house which was having alarm problems. The alarm was going off in the middle of the nite and setting of silent alarms as well. In those days I used to sleep with my loaded .357 Colt Python with 6 inch barrel ( like the one used by Dirty Harry). So I would have to get up and check all the windows and doors and make sure no one had gotten into the house. This happened many time in the couse of about a month.
Well one nite the alarm went off at about 3:00 AM. I grabbed my gun (big mamma) and went out my bedroom door and I sensed something was wrong. I listened closely before going down stairs and was sure some one was downstairs. After catching my breath I cocked Big Mamma and pointed my gun down the staircase and stated firmly that if I didn't hear footsteps leaving immediately I was going to open fire!!!!!
So then I hear a shakey and scared voice shouting .."don't shoot its the sheriff''s". I replied....How do I know that...get the F@ck out of my house, I'm ready to start shooting! Then I hear...."Howard don't shoot its me, Brad, your patient....DON'T SHOOT!!!!" (at the time I had my own dental practice and this local sheriff Brad who was a patient would discuss our guns). So I said throw a badge out where I can see it!!! He did, I uncocked Big Mamma and went downstairs. Some how that nite I had left the backdoor unlocked and my alarm system malfuntioned and set off a silent entruder alert to the sherrif's....they came and found the backdoor unlocked, came in and set off the audible alarm which got Dirty Howie out of bed.
Anyways when I get downstairs Brad and his partner are more shook up that me. They were sure I was going to open fire on them.....Brad kind of knew I was crazy. So after we all settled down we had a good laugh and they went on their way.
People that know me are aware that my hair is always combed and looking very neat. Not bragging but people always tell my hair looks perfect. Brad told me the next time he was in the office that his partner could not believe that I woke up at 3:00 Am, scared the **** out of him and that my hair was in perfect order......
So after telling this story a couple of weeks ago one of our forum members (thanks again Tommy) posted a bunch of photo shop pics of Clint Eastwood with very funny captions referring to me as Dirty Howie.
(hope fully he will post them again!!)

I can't even imagine what my reaction would be to finding people in my house at 3:00am.

AND...when looking down the business end of a .357 Python with long barrel the last thing you are thinking is......Gee only 44's really scare me!!
