No. I agree with the others who say if someone wants to find you, they will. I worry more about the lowlife who might be stalking my neighborhood instead. (I think I watch to much Criminal Minds. But I do love Reed and Morgan!!)

Excuse me, I have to ask two questions. Is the big dog you are talking about the one in your avatar? :)
Do you mean a Glock 44? :)
LOL naaa that was a kit, I wish I could make a quilt from a photo! A glock, now there is an idea, I have just a six shooter and a few rifles and a cross bow, wonder if they will wait while I load that LMBO

It's "possible" that the pic of your house is from your cities property records. I'm not sure that this is the case here but it could well be. You could check with your city records (call & ask if you can do it on-line) and you may find the exact same picture. Hope this helps.

Please be aware......If pics are taken with a device (aka phone) that is equipped with GPS, the exact location of where the pic was taken can be itentified.
There is a site, can't remember the name that posted your public info, so curiosity got the best of me, I went to the site and posted my name and waaalaaa there I was, map to my house and all my address info, included my phone number, even had a picture of my driveway and I was like how in the heck or when did they do this......

I think it's just important to be careful about posting personal information. This site is supposedly pretty secure.

I had one guy once come to my door, my German Shepherd dog was out back, but was coming in just as I opened the door, this guy stuck his foot inthe door jam, my dog comes up beside me, I grab his collar. this guy looks at my dog (who is huge!) and says "I am sorry I think I have the wrong place" I said I think you do, and called the cops right after I shut the door.
A bible fanatic of some kind tried that one on me one day when I had daycare kids. Than he refused to leave. I called the sheriff and than called the bus to have the kids get off at the neighbors. He scared me.
