3. Divest yourself of all worldly goods, and be enlightened that you are not merely flesh and bones. Repeat after me "ommmmm"

4. Put bars on your windows and get a dog.

Lookout stated that his philosophy was not to pull out his gun unless he was going to shoot, but recently he did just that. When Wolf found a snake (IIRC) in her apartment, she wasn't packing so she didn't shoot it, and she didn't go get her gun and shoot it. Guns might not be the panacea you're looking for.
