O/T Some People...........

Earlier today, one of my wife's brothers and his wife had a lawn party for their 50th wedding anniversary. They had a large tent set up in their back yard with a buffet line.

You guessed it. Their boneheaded next door neighbor picked that particular time to mow his lawn with a noisy push mower. A couple of us considered asking him how he would push his mower with two broken arms.
 
I have the same problem with trying to get my truck out of the drive way. I can sit in my office for an hour. Not one car comes down the street. Get in my truck to leave and the street turns into a super highway.
 
Well,reckon he could have been hauling turkey manure.
Maybe if he'd have been invited to the party,he wouldn't have tried so hard to disrupt it.
 
To many people in on this planet. They are starting to climb over one another like rats. It is very clear that it is time for some government regulations and taxes on wedding anniversary parties and lawn mowing.
 
that was nice of him, 2 choises, either just write him off as a a--, or its "he's all mine" time, does your grass need mowing? tommorrow is sunday and about 5;30 am its nice and cool out, then theres always the radio, mexican music always is appreciated about that same time of the morning
 
I probably shouldn't say this, but whenever my wife's family has a get together, one crew that shows up always reminds me of "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" when Griswold's cousin show up in a motorhome.

My wife has six older brothers, and somewhere between three and six assorted half brothers and half sisters. No one has ever been able to get an exact count. They have a reunion every year and at every reunion there are always some weird people show up that no one has seen before.

Even my wife jokes about it.
 
ey Goose, i bet you've never done anything inconsiderate either. Give it a break maybe the guy works 80 hours per week. He's a neighbor and it sounds like nobody knows him! Who's fault is that.
 
My crazy neighbor lady who has very unatural relationships with her dogs, mows her lawn at 10:00 PM with a push mower and sometimes a flashlight. And its not because of a sun alergy-she spends most of the day in a lawn chair in the sun! And looks like it too-like she escaped from the undertaker.
 
Would have been a good time to invite him over for some food.Some problems are just almost to easy to solve.
 

If he's a neighbor and wasn't invited, maybe there's a little more to it than meets the eye.....

Maybe you folks were disturbing his lawn mowing?

Why should someone elses world have to revolve around your plans or vice/versa anyway.
I get a lot of looks here because folks take Sundays, religion, and religious holidays pretty serious (at least on those days). Not supposed to run your tractor on the road or mow lawn/make excessive noise on those days. Our animals aren't religious and need taking care of, so I do what I need to do as quick possible.

Live in a catholic town and they called the police on me one day. Cops show up and ask me why I wasn't observing the quiet rules. Told them I wasn't a hypocrit, didn't screw my neighbor behind his back, and didn't rape choir boys, so why should I be quiet. Asked them to give me a ticket so I could research the rule and they wouldn't do it. One was pretty upset but the other was kinda smirking (guess he wasn't catholic?).

Was the guy mowing his yard smoking a cigarette and farting so he was screwing up the party air also????

You're a real ray of sunshine Dave. An afternoon's simple consideration to celebrate 50 years together seems too much to ask from you. Poster boys like you who continually decry religious affiliation make a statement that few other things could. Glad you're not my neighbor.

Get over it... In those 50 years, they prolly experienced a lot worse noise than a neighbor mowing his yard.

Nothing wrong with religion at all. Just the folks that think thiers is the one and only and I especially have nothing but contempt for the ones that condone child molesting.

But, back to the subject, sure the folks had a nice anniversary party despite the lawnmower.

Sounds like some of mine also. Always getting calls from people saying they are Uncle Rays kid. I knew Uncle Ray drove a truck. But I think he was doing more than driving.

We all have our opinions...Why apologize? I'd give any of you the shirt off my back or the heel of my boot if you deserved it. Not reading my posts may save you some valuable time anyway.......
