Why is it - that we all think we have such terrible neighbors...

I'm here to tell you - I AM "that" neighbor..

well, I'm the one whose dogs will kill your cats, who doesn't mow the lawn (3ft and counting) who's paint is peeling - has 2 yes 2 broken cars in the driveway - oh and has 15 people over to the house for a dinner party and takes up every parking spot in the court. :smile: :smile: :smile:

however - I suppose I could say the same thing about my neighbors -they all have marachi bands until 1 am and their parties have like 200 people...

    so basically.... if you get there early, you dont have to pay or try to sneak in...

    I think I'll be down there Friday for Big Head Todd & The Monsters, then again on Saturday for Van Zant, and Nugent

    Kansas is a toss up for Sunday... ive seen them at the taste a couple of times and they dont thrill me live that much.... but who knows... not like I have a job, or much of a life, or anything else going on, these days....

    Great!! I just mentioned to my husband about ribfest... before I realized that Kansas was playing. Not that I don't enjoy them, it's just that an hour of 8 minute long rock symphonies gets a little ... um tiring. Guess my Sunday is shot. :eyeroll:

    It was 92 here yesterday - but after the 115, and 113 - it almost felt cool and comfortable.

    Today It's supposed to be 88... I may need a sweater.

    The only problem with that idea is that they are probably small islands that only sit a few feet above sea level. In 10-20 years it'll be underwater because of global warming.
