Drug dealing kid lives next door.
His clients walk up front, he tosses a baggy out his bedroom window, they pick up & leave. Not sure how he gets paid.
His mom is so proud of him. She told us "he only does drugs on the weekends now"
Little does she know, he sits in the backyard smoking pot 7 days a week.
Oh yeah, he's only 15, kicked out of school too.

Imagine JJ as your neighbour- him tapping away at his keyboard day & night trying to get up to 60,000 posts would drive anyone mad!

Kids screaming up and down the steet....teenagers driving buy with a car that sounds like one big speaker and

I don't have problems. I told my neighbors I have guns and I don't like loud noises after 9pm. Then I asked them if they had any questions.

Wow, after reading some of your stories sounds like I'm blessed with the best neighbours in the world. One example, this week I order a tonne of top dress soil to be delivered onto my front lawn while I was at work. We I came home I noticed my neighbour had covered it with a tarp (in case in rained) and got out his wheelbarrow and spade for me to borrow.

He knew you were burying a body, he just hopes it is not him!

Our old neighborhood was alright. This new neighborhood totally sucks. There is constantly that drive-by of Honda Civics that sound like they're powered by Briggs-and-Stratton going by our condo every hour, blasting music, slamming doors, etc. I can't WAIT to MOVE !!!

Sometimes my neighbors cat walks through my yard. It is a cute, little cat though. I just sit on my porch swing and chill.

In another life I lived out in the country on 6 plus acres. It was heaven; pool, barn and a pond stocked with bass and bream. On the other side of the pond was a vacant piece of land so it was like total seculsion. Nearest neighbor was up the road and on the other side. Until, this cracker who had some sort of of on the job injury bought the land across the pond and put a trailer on it. His lawyer was financing him until the settlement. They bought every kind of toy a redneck loves, atvs, pickup trucks that needed ladders to get into, guns they would shoot out back,etc. One Saturday night after about the fourth martini I retired to my bedroom which had doors opening onto the pond side, when I was thrown out of bed by the sound of a four wheeler coming within a yard of my bedroom doors. I immediately jumped out of bed ran outside and got into the biggest fight of my life. Cops were called by my s o and when they arrived I knew I was in big trouble as they obviously knew this guy and were of the same ilk. I was nearly arrested and if I hadn't called a detective friend of mine would probably have spent the night in jail. Things were finally sorted out after my friend arrived and a few months later the jerk got his settlement and moved away. The only good thing that came from this was when they moved they left their dog (a beautiful black lab) to fend for herself and I took her in and then gave her to friends who had just had to put their golden retriever to sleep. That really was the night from hell, and I resolved if it happened again I would shoot the bastard (seriously). He tore my yard up, ran over and knocked down a fig tree and the fish didn't bite for a month. I then bought the land and the trailer from the lawyer and rented it to a nice single lady who worked at the local hospital.

What's a "cracker"?

That guy sounds like a complete moron. Glad you got the land though.

A cracker is the only person that a redneck looks down on. Colloquial term used primarily in south Georgia and north Florida. Expanding on this. The term redneck originally came from the fact that agrarian people in the southern USA had sunburnt necks from working outside all day. So, to me, since that is my ancestry, is not so bad. Cracker supposedly has it's origins in referring to the drivers of mule hauled wagons, who cracked their whips over the mules to urge them on. These people were not nice and prone to hard drink, gunfights, and generally spending most Saturday nights in jail. Unfortunately, as these origins were forgotten, most people refer to latter day crackers as rednecks. In reality, rednecks always have redeeming qualities (see our very own Bubba) whereas crackers never do.
