Peeping can get Dangerous, and is No Way to Rent a Home.
I had some people call me from Milwaukee exclaiming that they were ready to rent my rural home.
When I asked them if they would like to set an appointment to tour the home, her response was that she had already looked at the home, loved it and was ready to move in.
This had me confused since this was the first that I had heard of this person.
Further down the conversation she revealed that her and her family had stopped by the home and looked in all of the windows, toured the grounds and it was perfect for her and her family.
I was shocked, and wondering how she did this without my vigilant neighbor stopping by with his shotgun and / or a couple of sheriffs deputies.
After a moment of digesting the situation, I pointed out to her that trespassing was a crime, as was peeping.
Not only a crime but a rather risky one since many people do have guns and have been known to shoot faces that peer in their rural windows.
I told her that I would call her back and email an application when I calmed down, and until that time, don't go wandering around the Northwoods peeping in peoples’ windows unless you are wearing a bulletproof face.
I never did call her back, though she did call me about 50 times, eventually I checked her and her husbands record just out of curiousity.
Evicted by several Milwaukee landlords, history of drug offenses, including manufacturing of narcotics.
I wonder what they had planned for my place? Did I miss out on an unwelcome appearance on Breaking Bad?
