So, I burned my chick peas on the cooktop about 20 minutes ago and my security system alarm goes off. Have you guys heard one of these things? Well, ya near about can't function when these things are screeching bloody murder. So, I get it turned off, get the pan off the burner and open my doors. Then I get a phone call from ADT. Ok, I expected that. (I've always wondered if my DSL was interfering with the security system anyway. Guess it's not. Good news!) I tell her I burned something and she says she'll try and cancel the fire dpartment. We hang up. A couple of minutes later, guess who's sitting in my driveway. Yepper. A big honkin' fire truck! A really cute fireman rings my bell and I have to tell him I burned something on the cooktop. He has me write down my name and phone number for his report and he's on his way. He was really nice about it but damn, I hate that they had to come to my house.
Damn chick peas!![]()
Be careful with that. In Delaware you have to register your alarm system with the state. If you have 2 false alarms they will fine you.
