Situation: Locked myself out of our upstairs bedroom.
My wife and I came home the other night, went upstairs to bed, and found out that I had locked the bedroom door, (seperate keys due to defense items inside, and expensive door.) Left the dumb key inside, :banghead: Now what?? Turned on all of the lights outside and noticed that the master bathroom window was open slightly. Opened it due to a steamy shower. Normally don't worry since you would have to be 14 feet tall to climb in there. Looking around I saw that I had left our 20 foot ladder on the side of the garage. I guess you know the rest of the story. What bothered me, besides my stupidity, was the fact that this old fat man could slowly climb up this ladder, unscrew the screws on the Pella windows, and climb through the bathroom window, (elapsed time about 7 or 8 minutes,) all within plain view of at least 4 neighbors, and nobody called the cops. We had just had some cat burglaries in the area too. If I can do it in 7 or 8 minutes, some young kid can do it in 2 minutes.
