Home Security
January 26, 2009
I just realized I live in a less well-traveled part of town. The roads are narrow and winding. The night sky is black, illuminated only by a multitude of stars when the clouds are away. No streetlights here. This also means that I and my roommates are prime targets for a break-in. It’s time we talked about home security.
Fortunately for us, I’ve outlined a plan to keep ourselves and our possessions safe from burglars, degenerates, and unsavory mountain people. First, each of us will immediately purchase and train with a jo staff. As my friend and colleague from Relatively Journalizing points out, a jo staff is “a shorter version of a bo staff, used instead for its similarities to a sword and its excellent disarming capabilities.” He should know: he once fought and defeated an army of ninjas using only a jo staff, but that’s another story for another time. If it’s good enough for Josh, it’s good enough for me.
Second, I shall train an army. An army of these:
No potential burglar would ever dare attempt to set foot in my house with 50 or so of those bad boys on patrol.
