Just knowing you're their neighbor probably pisses them off.

I usually try to read myself to sleep, but these latest threads induced me to pull up and re-watch Ken Burns' The Civil War the past few evenings. It's on Netflix.

I know the one to our left hates my guts, he has vandalized the place twice but it is always in the wee small hours. Funny part is that the cop who was here to see if there was any useful evidence said that with us we are so quiet and keep to our selves it would be like living next door to a church.

Frankly, The Dukes of Hazzard is a cartoon where a car is the star along with Catherine Bach's body.
Ditching it does strike me as overkill...

Still do...................and more determined to keep them on than ever.
Other than Daisy wiggling her butt around, I saw nothing about that show to draw my interest. Just another parade of goofy rednecks and impossible car tricks.
