My brother had an interesting solution to the Jehovah's visiting our neighbourhood a couple of years ago ... He was on leave, Royal Canadian Navy, and nobody else was home at the time on a saturday morning ... just woken up, he answered the bell ... the witnesses started their speil on anything and everything ... he invitied them in, and as they sat, arranging their thoughts, at the kitchen table ... "SO ... You want a beer?" ... silence ... Mark gets a beer from the fridge and opens it ... SILENCE ... has a swig ... "SO ... you guys want a toke?" ... Apperantly, they were out of the house so fast the WIND of God carried them ... needless to say, our house in Carleton Place was never bothered again by visitors for many ... MANY ... years ... :)
no word yet on the cancer follow up this year, but my oncologist says that the system is slow, and i shouldn't be worried ... RIGHT ... he's not the one who's following up on anything, eh?

That's a lot more amusing than slamming the door- guess I have to rethink my approach.
I just tell them I'm a pagan and they're just in time for the morning animal sacrifice...
it works...
i love the kids in the hall..
"Ah, you're just in time! You can hold the chicken while I get the hatchet..."

GO SENS GO!!!
I usually answer the door naked and that usually works for a non-return visit.
Except one time when a couple of Mormon boys came to the door.....
