Love thy neighbor...

Well I checked this on Snopes.com and guess what?
It's true.

**Read the story below before you look at the pictures.**
This is a true story, it happened in Utah and was on the news! I thought each of you could use a little comic relief today. Here's the story. A city councilman, Mark Easton, lives in this neighborhood. He had a beautiful view of the east mountains, until a new neighbor purchased the lot below his house and built. Apparently, the new home was 18 inches higher than the ordinances would allow, so Mark Easton, mad about his lost view, went to the city to make sure they enforced the lower roof line ordinance. Mark and his new neighbor had some great arguments about this as you can imagine - not great feelings. The new neighbor had to drop the roof line - no doubt at great expense.
Recently, Mark Easton called the city and informed them that his new neighbor had installed some vents on the side of his home. Mark didn't like the look of these vents and asked the city to investigate. When they went to Mark's home to see the vent view, this is what they found...




The full story can be found here although I wouldn't have taken it down...

LOL. I wouldn't have taken it down either. I think it's rather attractive.

I know a fellow who got in the same predicament. His outbuilding was made one story too high. A neighbour complained, so he took a chainsaw to the upper level just above the floorline. He left it jagged and tarpapered on purpose just to annoy his neighbour. This lasted for probably ten years, and when things rotted badly enough he knocked it down into a mess and left that there, too. Not terribly bright this fellow. After getting into a fight with his wife, he went outside and kicked the crap out of his motorcycle. She, of course, paid for the damages out of "her" money to patch things up. How this fellow ended up with a decent wife and good kids I'll never know.
