Praying Mantis
Well, I thought it would be more than a week, but I was wrong. The Bodeens decided they needed some pocket money, and since their carport roof was metal and all, it was selected as the scrap donor of the week. These idiots spent Saturday tearing down a pile of wood framing and steel lolly columns to get at the steel panels that kept the rain off the carport. These idiots have just made the hall of fame for stupidity.
The day starts with me sitting in my Barcolounger eating an egg sandwich, and hearing what can only be sounds of demolition. I went outside on the front porch with the sandwich and started watching these neanderthals destroy a perfectly good carport. Since they didn't have a truck [see also last week......] they decided to take the spare tire out of the little round well in the back of a friends car and attach a rope to the roof. When the car pulled forward, it ripped the roof right down, but also took all the soffit and fascia with it. In addition, the debris fell on the washer, which sits outside against the carport wall.
By the end of the afternoon, they had it in pieces and were using the little Toyota tercel to haul the folded up sheets of steel roofing to the scrap yard.
I got up Sunday morning to the smell of burning wood, so I went outside to see what the hell was going on. These idiots were burning a giant pile of wood framing in a big bonfire, during a red flag no burn warning to boot. We call the fire department who arrive and put the fire out, ask the Sheriff to give them a ticket [which they did: $550.00] and assured them they will receive a bill for 1,250 dollars for the fire truck response.
I think I have just declared war on my neighbors.
Fuck 'em and feed 'em fish heads. I have a hell of a lot more money, have better attorneys and am significantly angrier.
I'll keep you posted.....
