    Neighbor and the news guy

    I had a neighbor not even a close neighbor he cant see my house from his only time he sees it if he passes by but he call the local tv station and told them i had an illegal dump in my yard. So out comes the news man to investigate just happened to home for lunch from my 9 to 5 when he showed up wanted me to do interview on camra i turned him down but did talk to him let him know i am a lic junk dealer in alabama. Anyway puts a story on facebook the story caught to much flack from people with negitive comments they pulled the story the same day. If he had done his home work before he came out he would of found out that im in compliance with the city county and state. Maybe my neighbor can find something else to do withn his time. Maybe the olds fart needs a hobby

    Heck your lucky. You know the media just loves to add to a story, whether true or not. Sensationalism always sells. Like sex an drugs.

    Glad it worked out for ya tho, an the idiot reporter ended up looking like a fool.

    You should take your neighbor a mystery novel or something..since he likes snooping so much.

    Take him a copy of your license or permit to run your yard, maybe a face-to face would lighten the mood.
