They're Gone!They're Gone!They're Really Gone!

I think just about everyone we know has heard about or even directly experienced the horrible, horrible people that lived next door. They hadn't had water or electricity in months, even years maybe, so they would steal ours. They didn't mow their lawn. New and suspicious people were always coming and going. They would come over and ask to borrow our phones, sometimes at 2 am. Or try and sell us their junk. The police made monthly visits, usually hauling one of the inhabitants away. Anyway, I could go on and on about just how horrible they were. You can't begin to imagine our happiness, our pure delight when we found out that they were gone. For good. David and I began screaming and laughing, hugging one another, and dancing for joy. Hallelujah!!! The scum of the earth is gone!!!!! (Am I being too harsh? Naaaaaaaaaaaa!)

One of the regular visits by Lexington's finest.

A sample of how their house usually appeared. I don't know if they were trying to keep out flies or what.


Goodbye nasty ol' Ed!!!! (Yes, this is a photo of him from jail.)
