'You know that was two years ago, right?': Backwoods burglar unsuccessfully robs a pair of new homeowners after mistaking their house for his

Living in the middle of nowhere can be scary sometimes. With law enforcement miles and miles away, when something goes amok on your property, you're on your own. So while you're out there living in the boonies and you hear a calamitous kerfuffle outside, you should grab whatever weapon you can reach and go check it out yourself. 

If you're lucky, it'll be a coyote, a raccoon, or a skittish young bear venturing too close to your garage, but if you're like the guy in our next story, it's a little more 'small town' than that.
