I may have shared this incident before...if so, my apologies.
About five years back, still up in Minnesota, we had a salesman stop by. I was working in the garden at the time so my wife answered the door. Guy told her that he was representing a home security company offering complete alarm systems, installed, for half the price of new (last year's model or something along those lines). Only thing was that it was a one-day-only offer and it would have to be installed that day (Saturday).
My wife called me from the garden and relayed what the salesman had told her, the sales guy interjecting bits of information here and there. I looked at the salesman and said very seriously and slowly "I have security. .38 caliber security. My wife, too".
If that sales guy had left any quicker he'd have been running.
