    Dumb neighbor kid = entertainment value and 911 on speed dial for me!

    so this banging woke me up today and I go out to sit the garage and lookie loo at whats going on cause I'm nosy like that . He is tearing apart his moms camper. the big idea is to scrap out the camper part and sell it as a flat bed once thats off. So, I'm watching with my feet up coffee in hand and he is using a crow bar to rip the siding off. I'm debating on whether or not to go give some advice. After a while I go tell him to put some **** gloves on and does he want a bucket for screws that are all over the driveway now? No and no. He pulls up his shirt and shows me where he already cut himself on the chest with the siding. I pick up some screws and tell him to take everything off the outside first and pull the wiring before going any farther. I walk away and tell him I have 911 on speed dial and he just laughed. This is too good, I'm almost afraid to go out in a few minutes for my runs just because i don't want to miss the entertainment value!!!!
    I know tomorrow morning I'm going to hear ''WHY ARE ALL MY TIRES FLAT?????'' after they have driving over all the screws he left in the driveway. I wish I had a camera to film this and title, ''How NOT to safely scrap a camper for ding dongs.'' Lol.

    my guess is we will soon see him on the forum asking where to find copper wire and other scrap.

    you mean the one I call flip-flop, tater...then you found the redneck flip flops who make the original flip-flop look like a MIT grad...hey, we should put them on our video's with a big disclaimer..."these video's represent the exact opposite of everything you should do, say, or wear !!"

    I was hearing allot of banging down the street last month then one Sunday morning woke up at 6AM to the sound of "Come out with your Hands up or you will be shot" Turns out the meth heads squatting in the foreclosed house found a gun safe inside someones house and drug it down to the foreclosed house. Heard it had 27 guns inside. SWAT team took 7 folks away that morning 3 had warrants.
