A little noise but not often, and nothing we couldn't handle. HOWEVER, there was guy who liked to stop by with his tricked out What ever the hell it was and leave the car running, bouncing on its axles and blaring while he waited for the people who weren't home to answer the door. Either that or they heard him coming two blocks away and hid. Who knowss. When I had the gall (in his opinion) to ask him to at least lower the bass a bit I faced the same thing you folks did. I was a racist, etc, etc, etc. (he was Hispanic) Told him I didn't care if he was purple with chartreuse polka dots the music was too damn loud, the plates on the wall were rattling. I think I confused him with the chartreuse comment. And I think it finally sank in that folks weren't answering the door when he showed up. <br /><br />It's this whole unltra individualistic baloney. I have my rights and I'll think about respecting yours if and when I feel like it. Perhaps during the next blue moon or something.JACKIEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11883028058826030899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4283072392763163737.post-24942148139747255922012-07-09T10:46:48.036-07:002012-07-09T10:46:48.036-07:00I saw a funny quote that said, "Karma is only...I saw a funny quote that said, "Karma is only a bitch if you are!" I thought that was very funny and have filed it for future reference. Having nightmare neighbors is a lousy thing and I am sorry you have them. My father would have taken a stick to me if I had done things to bother our neighbors growing up. While I didn't have much respect for my father (then or now), it is correct to try to live your life so that you don't bother others and its reasonable to expect that respect in return. Too bad you can't count on your police to address the issue.Virginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04451139904242764009noreply@blogger.com
