IL Proposed Legislation

No kidding bob... did you not read the last post that said I was using him as an EXAMPLE

I am going to bite my tongue here because I know that my response will be reactive, unnecessarily so. I am at this very moment stressed out from a 2 year old that just gave his teddy bear a swirlie and a cat that will not get off my feet.

C'mon Bob... lets you n me go get a beer.

HEY GUYS! I really truly appreciate your help and encouragement all of the advice and all BUT I dont WANT to f**k with the guy! I was using him as an EXAMPLE

before I ever did any of the above, I would go down, knock on his door and say "Hey neighbor, would you mind moving that (whatever) it looks like hell from my back porch. I imagine he would think about it, OR I would plant something taller on this side of the fence. As it is now, there is nothing really to see until you go down by the pond and peer through the bushes... you have to LOOK because we have let the trees and brush grow up there for that very reason. Here, see for yourselves.

If the guy's junk got to me so much that I would have to go through a bunch of crap and hassle, I would do one of two things. Sell my place, or buy him out. More than likely, sell mine. i'd like to build a house anyway. BUT it isn't an issue... now, group hug and let's be done with it ok. I think we ALL need a beer, especially the poor teddy bear that is now in the washer while one cranky little man waits for it to get all clean after teddy got a swirley.

I can see that right here. In one : > community someone may dam and divert a creek and nothing will ever get : > done about it, while right next door, the weight of the world will : > come crashing down on someone else for doing the same thing. : : That might be but if he is breaking the law they will have to address it : if Kate demands it. As for damming and diverting creeks just get the : Army Corp involved. All flowing streams are classified as "Waters of : the US" and therefore falls under their jurisdiction. Believe me, they : will make life miserable for them and the Corp does not care who you are. ;)

Up there where you are Spike, (my home turf, born and raised) water rights are reason enough to shoot a guy and lose his body.

I'm in. I got a nice cold Saranac Octoberfest here, and more in the fridge.

BTW, in that picture, what is that guy fishing for? That's like 500 pound test line! Do you have giant alligators or whales in that pond? ;)

EXACTLY, Kate... Use him as an example and none of your other neighbors will dare to even think of pulling the same thing..... As they say... "string 'em up... it'll teach 'em a lesson"... : 0 )

Yep, go down there, stick a double up his nose and offer him a swig of parking lot gin... it's up to him whether he gets along or goes along...

Of course, you could;d just slip on down there and paint bulls eyes on the trailer and vehicles and let him find them on his own... LOL

Then, cut out some shark fin shapes, nail 'em to some flats and let the breezes move the fins like sails (Rodgers Dry Lake bed back in the mid 70s when we got a LOT of rain this was done by parties unknown and drew a heck of a crowd of gawkers).

Or, basketballs, painted gray, with some spike looking things so they look like mines.....

If yer neighbors a>HEY GUYS!

Spike

Gad what fools these morons be.... Children are obscene but should not be heard Give me a peperoni pizza... or give me a calzone!

He shot a snapper, ws fishing it out of the pond. "That guy", is my poor husband.
