    Well, our one next door neighbor moved out. Him and his wife had been here before we moved in. Apparently the rent increase done it as it has done with a few other residents that we've seen moving out. That neighbor also had two dogs, one a very, very nice female Pit Bull, but both dogs could bark in the middle of the night at something outside. That could easily wake us up.

    But, now we have a new next neighbor that are in their 80's. Very odd, because, basically, Seniors don't move into this complex. I happen to talk to three daughters of theirs that were helping them move in. One daughter told me that their parents had lived in this complex some 15 years ago. Bet is was very different then!

    Anyway, it darn near seems like they go to bed even before we do at 10PM. They are super quiet, of which, we are totally thankful for. Their one daughter has both arms covered with colored flower tattoos as well as on her legs and a couple on her back. Being the tattoos are colored, the daughter looks like a "walking rose garden" and I told her that. She said "thank you" to me and I meant it as a compliment.

    After coming back to our apartment, I couldn't believe that I complimented her on her colored flower tattoos. Perhaps I'm changing, somewhat anyway. Actually, I hope so.

    " When in Rome, do as the Romans do". Long as it isn't hurtful or too costly.

    Cody only hates the young smokers...probably not so much because of their smoking.

    The mantra to wear masks reminds me of when offices went smoke-free.
    Suddenly every asshole in the world is empowered. "Release the hounds!"

    Don't underestimate the danger of second hand joke.

    Bull riding can be dangerous for your health. At least the bull has a fighting chance though, unlike bull fights where the poot thing is stabbed in his nerves.by bull fighter. like to stick one of those things in the bull fighter where the sun doesn't shine.

    With things changing as they are, you may find it better to stay put and make some friends.

    I think that may be good advice, since Americans are running out of living options.
