When I was young man and I had moved away from home I shared the rent on a house with a guy older then me he was going through a divorce and he had a date the second night I was in the house.
I had noticed a starter pistol on the end table the night before so about 10PM I thought I heard a noise from the back yard so I turned off the light in the living room and picked up the starter gun and walked to the side door and out onto the drive way.
I made my way to the back breeze way to the back yard and peeked around the corner and sure enough a guy is kneeling down looking in the window, I said who you looking for and he jumped about 10 feet into the air and was shacking like I had just scared 10 years off his life.
He looked at me and said who are you about the same time he saw the pistol in my hand and started talking about my room mate saying he was just looking for him. I said you have a strange way of looking for people and could get hurt with his method of trying to find him, I then asked him if he had jumped over our 6 foot stockade fence in the back and he said yes thats how I got in here.
I smiled at him as he was watching my hand with the starter pistol in it in the dark I started raising my hand at the same time said you have three seconds to get back over that fence before something bad happens to you!

I didn't finish saying it before he had leaped and fell over the back stockade fence and ran away as fast as he could run!

I told my room mate about it and described the guy to him as he was laughing his rear off and says that was great it was his ex-wifes boyfriend trying to spy on him.

That guy in the back yard scared me as much as I scared him but he didn't know the gun was not real so I had a small advantage on him.

Man that guy can run fast!!
