I wanted to watch a football game - it may have even been a BYU game, I don't remember exactly. Anyway the prior year we'd had like 200 doorbell rings and I was not going to have that so I left the front porch light on and did this:
Yeah it was empty from the start. No one rang our doorbell that night and I watched the game in peace!
Did I feel guilty?
Mildly but it went away pretty quickly.
