my neighbor just went nuts

Post Reply New Topic

That's right, N-V-T-S, nuts!

I was down here, using the computer watching Mythbusters and all of a sudden I hear this loud banging around and hear him shout, "you mother f***er!" and more manging and throwing of stuff and more cursing and shouting.

I turned the TV off, opened my basement door to see if I could hear more clearly what he was angry about. I heard that he was calming down do I went to his door and asked if he was okay. He told me that a bat had landed on his face and it startled him and he chased it around with a broom and a DVD case.

See, at first I thought his cat had done something like knocked something over and he got POed and killed or hurt the cat. Turns out it was just a bat. I'm no more or less upset at the death of the bat than I would be at the death of the cat but I'm glad a companion animal wasn't hurt. I mean animals are my bread and butter. I'd hate for any creature to be hurt or killed but I can understand my neighbor's reaction.

I mean, just look at this widdle cute face!

Aww! So cute!

Poor little bat...

R.I.P

Echolocation friend!

Well, you do live in Maine . . . .


Seriously, I lived in Maine for 5 years, granted a more northern and rural part of the state, and I met some of the most nutty people there! I can't even start to tell stories about my neighbors because I'd write a whole book!

I know Augusta is said to be more civilized ( ) than parts north, but I visited my ex-fiance's family there numerous times, and I can say it definitely has that characteristically Maine thing about it . . . something for which words currently fail me.

Hope you're not offended!

There are plenty of nice things about Maine too!

Have some of those, great creatures. They slam into my face
everytime I paint the boards beside the windows on the house,
they like to hang there and sleep. Nothing to be afraid about (i think).

bats are cool, there are not any where i live though.
