If you feed the stray cat once, it will keep coming back...and next time it will bring the whole litter.

A few words of advice for the neighborhood kids:
(Jenny and Jamie's kids excluded, because I like them. And also because they are awesome kids and would never do ANY thing to require a lecture like this.)


-There is a community swing set at Kingsdale Park. Not in my backyard.
-I know you've been there when I go outside to find all the swing chains raised up to 4 ft off the ground. This bugs the crap out of me, by the way.
-Just because my garage door is OPEN, does not mean you can go inside it to play.
-The next time I find a dang razor scooter on my driveway, I will NOT get out of my car and move it before I back out.
-I don't like your "potty mouths". Please set a better example for my children. And Aaron was pretty pissed when you told him to "shut up" the other day. You should be nice to Aaron. He is super cool. And he has a boat.
-The old man in the house behind mine has a gun. And he is blind.
-the crawlspace under my house is full of black widows and snakes. Don't open the door. And don't throw your bike against it's wooden door at 6am. It makes more noise than you think. Also, that's a compost pile next to it, sooo...you might reconsider leaving your bike there at all. It's only .2 miles downhill to your house. Walk, boys.
-My daughters are at least 4 years younger than you, and you are boys. They can't come out to play.
-I am out of popsicles.

Wowza. I ditto your friend Susan. I am glad we don't have neighbors. And that the ones we do have are far away from the house and have no kids. I'd start shooting BBs at them kids :)

Hmmmm. Can you get that fence sooner than later? And some no tresspassing signs?

I would start collecting the scooters and bikes and storing them inside your garage....that'll get the Moms coming to your door and you can have a proactive discussion!
