They’ve won some primary elections. But, fortunately, there are probably enough reasonable people in the electorate to keep them from winning very many general elections and actually taking office.

I’m thinking about putting a couple full-sized orange and/or grapefruit trees in my yard. Partly for the fruit, and partly for a sound/wind block. Any opinions on this?

I’m also looking at the Holly Oak, which I’m thinking would take a lot less water.

Thanks.

[quote=NewtoSanDiego]No way in hell am I giving up my dog! I am an American citizen and I have a right to own what ever dog I want.

You liberal, nanny state proponents….whine, whine, whine. I have my rights.

I’m gonna have to take my dog for walks around your house. Go ahead stop me. I am a free to do this, it is not illegal[/quote]

Are you being serious? You go from “I do want to be at least perceived as a good neighbor” to “Go ahead stop me. I am a free to do this, it is not illegal.” So you’ve changed your mind? You don’t care about being perceived as a good neighbor? If you don’t want to be perceived as a bad neighbor, a good strategy for a guy like you might be not to talk to the neighbors at all. Just smile and wave and don’t talk. This way you’ll avoid saying anything that will reveal what lies beneath the “I want to be perceived as a good neighbor” bs.

If your intention was to reinforce the stereotype of what kind of person owns a pitbull, then nicely done.

[quote=flu]Previously owner got a bright idea in planting trees/shrubs/plants right next to the house. Not only does it wreak havoc on the walls when it comes to watering, can you say bug infestation? Don’t make the same mistake :([/quote]

My wife hates the idea of plants right next to the house, too (Maybe it’s a Chinese thing). The rental we’re in right now is a freakin’ jungle. My wife actually persuaded the landlord to tear out a bunch of plants and put concrete in part of the backyard next to the house.

We had a real mouse problem when we were on the canyon before. They would steal dog food from the neighbor and truck it over to our barbecue, where they would store it. And into our garage. It was actually kind of fun waging war on the little bastards. I’m not a hunter/fisher/killer type guy, kinda the opposite, really. But I must admit I enjoyed the strategy/game/battle/victory thing. Same with gophers. Oh, the thrill of chucking a defeated gopher into the canyon after weeks of battle.
