It was a husky. Two of them... though only one of them wanted to eat me. The other one wanted to play. No "beware of dog" signs were posted, and there was no fence (dogs were on an invisible fence)... I should have called the cops, but my job puts me in a bit of a gray area legally... and explaining to the cops why I was on the property in the dark in the first place could be a hassle...
The sucker did manage to rip a big hole in my $45 jeans
If it was a person attacking me, I'd have done some damage... but I won't hurt an animal unless my life is truly in danger.

The animals were just protecting their home. I can't explain to them that I'm there because their owners aren't paying their mortgage... They just know that I'm on their territory, and I don't belong there!
They were really just trying to chase me away, not hurt me. They'd have done far more damage if the goal was to hurt me.
Sane dogs are actually very logical. If you're intruding on their territory, you either have to assert dominance, or show submission and retreat. If either is done correctly, nobody should get seriously hurt. Of course, some dogs aren't all that sane... they don't understand dominance and submission, because they've never lived with other dogs.
If it was a person, I'd have no problem hurting them if they attacked. I can reason with a person. If a person can't be reasoned with, then my only choice is to defend myself.
Fortunately, I've never had to hurt any living being. It would be an irritatingly complicated situation if I did... I do my best NOT to have anything to do with cops.

I keep all my keys on a carabiner, and the only key to uzume came off one day. I had looked everywhere, in the car, in the apartment, and had gone back out to the car again. A friend stopped his car to say hey and we talked for a few, then I told him I really had to go look for my key. He asked what was on the ground next to me that was sparkling in the early morning sun. I looked over where he pointed, it was my key. From his angle in the car, it was a bright glaring reflection, from my angle standing up, it was gray on gray asphalt.

I didnt know about it until I walked 3 miles back to my car and then discovered they were not in my pocket. So for 6 hours I had to stand by my car while my mom and sister got off of work and came and gave me my spare keys.

I have my main key on my key chain.
#1 spare key in my wallet.
#2 spare key in my kitchen.
#3 spare key on my fiance's keychain.
Spare's are only like $1 at WalMart, there's no reason you should be locked out of your car.
