DISQUS

Ahhhhh, I truly feel for Mary. While it is true that she may not win and that she should call the police several times nightly until they start fining the landlord for the tenants offenses, it is not likely she will win against the HOA, even though she should.

When I lived in NY I too had the tenant from HELL below me in my co-op building, I owned, he rented. He was like clockwork right around midnight he would crank up the music, start screaming at his wife and would often beat her, he was most likely a drinker and a nasty drunk. The heel of my western boots worked well for banging on the floor to try to get him to shut up and stop, but alas, it too was ineffective.

What Mary needs to understand is that being in the upper unit she has a distinct advantage, as I did. I decided to get even with the pr*$k!

I enlisted my sister. Together we moved my furniture to the walls, moved the coffee table out of the way, rolled up the area rugs, had a few drinks of our own, turned the monster sized speakers down onto the wood floors, laced up our roller skates and had a great time dancing in skates, jumping up and down, singing at the top of our lungs, blasting the music...just making all the noise that we could possibly dream up.

Of course I waited until a day that it was obvious that he had company over.

When he and his buddies banged on my steel door, we ignored them and rocked on. We did this in the middle of the day, when we had the right to make noise - not at an unreasonable hour.

Nobody could do a thing. We went on for hours and had a great time while doing it.

The wife left him about 2 weeks later, he moved within a month.

The lesson here..............never, ever screw with your UPSTAIRS neighbor!

As one of the original Trulia Voices members I dropped off of Trulia Voices early on when the "Gaming" began. I liked Trulia Voices a lot when it began and saw real potential value in it. Trulia has a highly established consumer presence and presented a viable means to connect directly with the shopping consumer. It is my sincere hope that Trulia can pull this back together as it had real possibilities.

Hmmmmmmmm

Aren't you two just the sweetie-pies of the year. Thank you very much for this honor. Outspoken and opinionated - who me? LOL! Must be why Brian and I get along so well, hahahaha. Thanks again,

Hey Baby - I'll take June.

Hmmmmm, I didn't get bad results either:

beach 6.74%
long 6.49%

Woof...

Do you see any buddies in that picture? Oye!

OK, the picture alone made me weak in the knees. I give up, so, he jumps, then what? If he lives how the heck does he get out of the bungee and onto solid land again?

I am still giggling, but honestly what were you 2 smokin'? LOL!!!!

WELCOME HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The boys are back, and what an entrance..........

A few weeks ago I was attempting to take a photo of the Community Center at Cesar Chavez Park on West 4th and Golden Avenue in Downtown Long Beach. Kids kept running in and out of the front door, so I stood patiently waiting for them to disappear. I finally get a shot without any kids in it and that woman with the walkie talkie that you mentioned (or her clone) was all over me like a ton of bricks. Dang, while I get it, geez, get over it already. What's with the rude bit anyway? Thankfully I don't get real intimidated, must be that New York in me. Just don't piss me off.

OK, guys enough with the fishing. Git back here. I dunno Linda this may just be some kind of experiment.

I thought you might like a little extra traffic :), great article.

Come out Come out wherever you are..............

Happy Independence Day. Hope you guys are having a great adventure.

:)

Hi Jay,

Wonderful article, really gets to the heart of the matter. Yes my blog produces clients. Some of whom have read the entire blog which just blows me away. One guy locked himself in his office for a day and wouldn't let anybody interrupt him, I was speechless. I think that was the point that I knew it was a decent blog.

Like Linda, I think your last paragraph sums it up nicely.

Congratulations on your '200th'.

Ha, if we said everything that was on our minds we would be notorious.

Roadies, HA HA HA HA, How psychodelic.
Groovy man, Groovy.

See ya in San Francisco, unless you are stopping in LA or Long Beach first.

Laurie

How cool is that?

Hilarious, will have to bring a potty trained date to that restaurant, lol.

Fun, fun fun in the warm California sun..............

Would love to join you all. I believe Kaye Thomas will be joining also and perhaps Brian Brady.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

While I am cracking up laughing at many of these I can't help but consider the level of absolute "dumb" that approved these for use.

Wow, I am getting dizzy just looking at it.

With all of the development in Downtown Long Beach, many historic homes were sold for $1.00 here also, however our moving costs are much greater and the issues are quite complicated. The trees and electric lines on most of the streets are an issue, the tractor trailers required to make the move plus the height of the home, even cut in half is too high to go through most of the streets. An interesting dilemma.
