Cop? lies on video

When I was around 6 or 7, people built houses on either side. Jerk retiree from some snowbird E36 M3 hole moves in next door. Within a week he starts complaining about stuff. Keep in mind, my Dad demanded that our family keep everything immaculate; house, cars, yard, etc. Everything was in tip-top shape. First bone of contention was our basketball hoop. If memory serves me correctly, it was less than 6 inches on his property. My Dad tried everything to make it "right," but eventually, it had to be moved...less than 6 berkeleying inches, to make this E36 M3 head happy. This wouldn't have been a big deal if not for the wheel-barrow sized lump of concrete buried in the ground. I remember me and my brothers having to dig that berkeleyer up...and move it six berkeleying inches. ALL that being said, the rules is the rules. I think my Dad handled it well. He kept a cool head and did what we had to do, and E36 M3 head was just a plain E36 M3 head, whom nobody in the neighborhood liked. Pops could've pitched a fit or started a fight or called the local news crying or whatever, but instead, we just moved the berkeleying thing and went on with our lives. So while I generally hate government interference and regulation more than the next guy, screaming "THEY'RE STEALING OUR LIBERTY!" because people were forced to move a basketball net is a bit of a stretch. Move the E36 M3 and move on. Furthermore: Judging by the erratic behavior of Mom and Dad (climbing the pole, parking their car in front of it, being a E36 M3 head to the city employees who were just doing their job, and generally acting like a berkeleying baby,) I'm guessing they've raised a couple of little smart-mouthed E36 M3 head kids who wouldn't get the berkeley out of the street when people were trying to park their cars, damaged someone's vehicle, etc., which is why someone complained in the first berkeleying place. This jack-wad apparently received multiple warnings. He has a berkeleying driveway. Put the pole next to your driveway, dumb berkeley.

Poop, always enjoy your posts.

I put my pole where it doesn't belong every Saturday night.

In reply to Jay:

But do you have to pay a "fine" in order to do so?

Probably a two drink minimum atleast

You can bet that these people will be getting a bill in the mail. City told my parents to fix the curbs in front of the house and it was cheaper to let the city do it. But they did send a bill.

Curbs, like the 7 feet noted above, is City property. WTF? My curb is all chewed up by untalented snow plow drivers, I'm not fixing their mistake.

I didn't know they had curbs that far north.

Sidewalks are often within that zone too, but are still your responsibility in most places.

Had to do the sidewalks to where a tree we weren't allowed to remove had pushed it up. I drove through the old neighborhood last year when I was home and the place has turned into a real E36 M3 hole, I guess the city just stopped caring. And they didn't pay a dime when fifty yards of old sewer collapsed running directly under the back corner of the house causing it to drop about ten inches. They said it was biult before they were in charge of sewers or some bs.
