Yeah, plant a nice bush that will just bush right out next year right on the edge of your property. It’s on your side but whatever grows onto his side is his to maintain. Be sure to keep your side nice and trimmed so his die looks like shlt. LOL!

go ahead and fire the bushup yourself. when the guy comes out start running around the yard chanting Yahweh...then if he walks over tell him he's gotta kick off his shoes cause he's walking on sacred ground...this could get even better.

Good idea, dayhiker! Maybe I'll go over to Home Despot this weekend and pick out the ugliest bush I can find. Even better, maybe I'll plant a female gingko tree there. The one down the street is dropping its seed pods right now. Ever smell squashed gingko seed pods? They smell like dog crap. And the wind usually blows from my house toward his! Score!

They smell worse than dog crap BM, especially when the weather is still hot. Jeez they're enough to make you puke.

it's getting real close to holloween...you should decorate it with lots of nice flammable holloween decorations, maybe even put a nice dry bail of straw next to it and a scarecrow

The upstairs squatter OCD-Alcholic neighbor just knocked on our door:

Squatter: "Can I use your Oven?"
Dani: "No"

End of conversation. LOL. And yes, it's quiet entertaining to watch an alcoholic OCD come home but usually it's damn annoying.

I just had an interesting experience with some of my neighbors. There's the ones to the north of me, in general; they're all involved. And there's the people 3 houses north, and on the block behind us. They are the reason for this particular posting. I can't say I'll miss the wildlife too much, if they're sort of human.

I'm going up to Charlotte NC early tomorrow morning. I'm trying to get the car packed and the house cleaned tonight. So I just took another load out to the car, and I hear this honking noise. It's very loud, and I notice the people in the next house north are out their yard looking for the noise too. Then I notice them; some people having sex in their back yard by the light of the tiki torches. The woman is honking away like a goose in distress. I can hear the man grunting the entire time. I don't know what they were braced against, since they have a 6 foot privacy fence that is woefully inadequate when one is standing 4 feet above the ground on one's front porch. I start hearing catcalls and whistling from other houses around here; the woman getting the action starts yelling "They can see us! They can see us!" The man's just pounding away saying "I don't care!" I went back in my house and got the toy trumpet Laurel has; it sounds like several squeakie toys going at the same time, somewhat honk-like. :)
The woman finally says "Okay that does it! You stop now!" I don't know if she was talking to me or husband/ boyfriend/ whatever
because we were all laughing too hard at them.

tree, years ago I had an apartment and the neighbor behind me had a rather vocal girlfriend who could be heard OUTSIDE the building. The design of the bedrooms meant out bed backed up to a common wall.

One morning they were getting "jiggy wit it" and I walked over pounded on the wall and said, "Hit'er in the other one...I did."

Both stories are hilarious. They had lights on and were 2' below fence line and didn't want to be seen? That guy knew they would be seen and just didn't point out this fact to the wife...sounds like.

That's great on the horn too.

Years ago I had to sit in on a termination hearing for a firefighter who had gotten caught "Flagrante Delecto" in a truck.

Apparently he had checked out a reserve truck one Saturday afternoon to do some 'driver's training". We heard the truck go in service for the training.

Then about ten minutes later the radio opened up. In this truck the front seat was a BENCH seat that had a two separate cushions, you could get three people on the front seat but the seat itself was two cushions. Since the clip for the microphone was old it was often easier to drop the mic on the seat when you were driving rather than clipping it back on the radio. Apparently the mic had gotten wedge between the cushions....

So we hear this static and a girl say, "This is neat, are you sure this is okay?'
Then we hear the fireman say,"Yeah everyone does it."
Then next thing we hear is, "I always wanted to do this, thats why I didn't wear any underwear...."

After that it got rather obscene and somewhat pornographic. We got a literal "blow-by-blow" description of this couple doing the spotted shark dance.

The best part was just as they are starting to hit the moment from no return you hear the door open (LOL). Apparently the Chief had called the Duty Captain and sent him to find the truck. But for about 10 minutes we were in stitches as we listened to the radio.

No idea.
The gay couple in our neighborhood is much more discreet.

I just have these visions of some dude banging away slapping some chicks butt yelling...
"HONK LIKE A GOOSE BABY! DADDY LIKES IT WHEN YOU MIGRATE!"


I'm going to go claw my eyes out now.

LOL...HPM. We had an older guy (60 ish) who had married a 20 something and one evening they were making the beast with two backs. Well they had decided to try the HALL WAY. So she is holding on to the railing of the hallway above the first floor and he is going for it. The railing gives out and they go over. She broke her pelvis, and he broke an arm, and a leg. The bad part is that his 15 year old daughter came home and found them out cold.
