        Hmmm, maybe we'll stop by this evening (Friday).. We're going down
to Tucson this weekend... How are Weekdays for you anyway? I would LOVE to
come over on my own sometime, and since I've got nothing going 99.9% of the
time, I'm always available..
        I enjoy your company emensely, though it seems at times I tend to
babble.. But as long as you and others find my babbling productive babble,
I'll continue.. HAHAHAHHAH!

Subject: Michael on neighbor
Date: 05/24/91  Time: 07:57:31

You saying your neighbors are "not stable" probably is an understatement.
I've heard of this before - neighbor is a nuisance but who knows what they
may do if provoked by you calling the police or retaliating. You could have
a war on your hands - one that you could easily lose. I guess there is just
nothing you can do but pray they move someday soon.
 
Years ago, my husband had two situations with neighbors and this is how he
handled them ...
... one neighbor killed my husband's dog because he got in his chicken coop.
He did not warn my husband, just shot the dog. My husband was young, but he
got back .... he'd constantly let the air out of the guy's tires. The man
never caught on.
Another time a neighbor was causing all sorts of problems that the police
couldn't handle and he put a big chunk of
Limburger cheese somewhere in the engine compartment - maybe the radiator?
... and it totally ruined the automobile from the smell. The guy couldn't
even sell it!
These thing will not get the neighbor to move - he may not even know you are
doing them, but you will know! *>>> ANN O. <<<*

Yes, I want to hear more real-life examples like that rather than just
theorizing about what I "should" do.  I'd rather just put up with a little
noise than have it escalate to dog shooting and car cheezing.

> pray they move.

Hey, I'll write one for you.
I'll write a prayer for you on moving, a quick one.

        Oh, maker supreme of all the cosmos,
        make Them move, make Them move.
        Ouch.

I FINALLY saw Blade Runner after many years and for the life of me I do not
know why you guys have Blade Runner watching GTs or that Cliffy has bought
it on CD???!! It has an interesting story, but nothing great. I do love
Rutgar Hauer and Harrison Ford. Some of the effects were good but not great.
You couldn't see too much because of all the lights and haze and I couldn't
hear too well either and I had it turned up pretty high. As a science
fiction, I'd rate it '**' - with movies like Aliens and Terminator '****'!
The movie had a cold feeling to it. Maybe that was planned, but ....!
Just my opinion. *>>> ANN O. <<<*

        I never 'bought' it on Laser disk Ann...  Nick Ianuzzi got it as a
gift because he once had a LASER Disk player.  They are not called CDs by
the way. In movie form they are 'laser disks'....

Ann, I may have seen Blade Runner and then again I may not have.  I don't
really know for certain.

I guess I'll be unemployed when Congress kills funding for the Space
Station.  Does anyone need any software designed, implemented, tested, and
validated?

        I am surprised that no one has commented on yesterdays abortion
ruling.  I for one am glad my tax dollars won't be used to bail out careless
people who think sex is just a form of recreation.  If they want to play,
then let them pay.  Besides, abortion is murder and I think it is only time
now before it will be ruled as such.  We are headed in the right MORAL
direction.

I can understand not wanting to use tax money to pay for abortions, but I
don't think it's right to tell doctors they're not allowed to TALK about
them, even if the doctors are paid with tax money.  Restricting information
is rarely a good idea.

Nah.  We can still fight.  Which side you want?  :)
 
Interesting to hear about your music.  I love music of all kinds (Well,
maybe not ALL kinds.), but can only play the radio.  Oh well.

Eugene Roscoe, 55,  was indicted by a grand jury in Houston
in February for defrauding prospective employers (in at
least 38 states) out of travel expenses during the time he
was interviewing for jobs.  He apparently avoided landing
the jobs by feigning ignorance at crucial points in the
interviews.  Said one investigator, "He was making very good
money (more than $100,000 a year) doing job interviews as a
career.

     Bring on the welfare applicants.  Nothing like a little Class War under
the auspices of morality.
