The Phantom Strikes!
The following notes were posted on the fridge of my mother-in-law recently. With great foresight, she saved these three hilarious samples from her daughters' childhoods. I have not yet been able to determine which one of these Zen nuggets was written by my wife. I wonder if she is the Phantom?
"The cat made a mess in the laundry room. I'd clean it up but I didn't see it."
"I will be home when I get there. If not home by the time I'm supposed to be, call and tell whoever answers that I need a ride."
"Everybody: don't lock the front door. I've lost my key again. Phantom"

And then there was always the non-phantom option for those who forgot their keys, which was jimmying the screen off the garage window, then using a screwdriver to pop the lock on the garage door and get into the house.
I totally forgot about that! Definitely the best way to break into our house! Dive in the window, land on Dad's workbench, hurdle some bicycles, pick the lock.
