I wouldn't even enter a friend's garage uninvited, unless he had told me to come in that way, in which case it wouldn't be uninvited any more.

Not trying to be a smart ass, but maybe you should keep your garage door closed. I agree no one should walk into someone's open garage, but there are enough people out there that will help themselves to anything not bolted down as it is and they obviously don't respect boundaries.

I agree.

A couple years ago, my son and I were working just around the corner from the garage with the garage door open. A lady walked inside my garage and was walking back out and down the driveway when I happened to come back to the garage. She gave me the quick story that her and her husband were lost and looking for the interstate, ( which at the time, my home was about ten miles out in the country away from the nearest interstate ). One of my neighbors had seen these two repeat this drill at several other homes in our little sub division.

I don't leave my garage door open for shit, anymore. Not even if I'm mowing my front yard.

One afternoon I pulled my motorcycle into the garage after work. I put it on the sidestand, locked the fork, got off and turned around. Inside my garage is some guy I have never seen with a photo I.D. tag and the name of a big replacement window company here in Southeast Michigan.

Just as I start to say something he said "I've talked to your wife before. (he had been told we were not interested)I'm working the neighborhood again today and since I saw you I figured I'd ask again."

My response was "So you just walk in my garage uninvited? Get the hell out"

I'm slowly doing my own replacements with Andersens in conjunction with a friend that is in the trades. But if I was looking for a window company I can assure you who it would not be with.

According to Lisa's handout she was a police officer. I guess according to her campaigning makes it legal to enter a person's home.

If I leave my garage door open anybody that comes up to my house comes in to knock on door or try the "doorbell" which is really a garage door operator button.

The first thing I noticed is that none of those campaign brochures or fliers identified which political party the candidates belong to.

Looks like the wolves in your area can’t run on being wolves.

First thing I noticed. A quick google of the names led to a lack of surprise that they were dems.

Anyone familiar with Pennsylvania would know immediately the party affiliation.
