1. And every time he's out there, I can't mow MY fucking lawn because he screams at me!
For fuck's sake, man, get off the porch once in a while and let me do my fuckin' yard!!

10. Why would I want to mow my yard? That's what kids are for. Send 'em out wth scissors, and
don't feed them dinner or let them go to sleep until they're done. And it's considerate of the neighbors, because it's quiet.

(PS: I don't need to be checking out the neighbors, thank you very much. Remember, I'm the guy who has the wife that all the OTHER neighbors check out.you should see the crowds gather when she's washing the cars.)

13. I'm sure that's exactly what the neighbors think, too. The truth is that Mrs R enjoys
washing / waxing the cars, when I'd be just as happy to pay someone else to do it.

Ditto with mowing, landscaping, and so on. And is it MY fault that they see me taking a break once in a while to sit on the front steps and drink a beer while I'm chatting with her? Is it MY fault that I have to take such breaks at least twice an hour?

Is it?

(PS: In case you didn't know, Mrs R looks kinda like that young lady second from the left, only better. How could I NOT want to watch?)

17. Hey, you gotta be inventive to keep the old fires stoked, and it seems to have worked.
17 years together, and we're still like a pair of hormone-soaked teenagers with each other.

We must be doing something right...

14. He'd be well-advised to do so. Just because we're quiet, that doesn't mean we're not dangerous
when provoked. We can come out from our porch and do some damnage pretty damn quick if someone forces us to, yes?

Porchers unite! Most of America was like us, back when things were better in this country.

21. In my town, municipal code requires
one sitting on a screen porch to be cradling either a shotgun or a Pimm's Cup. :D

24. Pimm's Cup works for me. That's a regulation I can abide with.

22. I like the grass tall. Neighbors don't seem to notice me on the porch
cleaning the guns.

26. Now, THAT I like to hear...that we're not the only ones who "volunteer" our kids to help
the older neighbors out.

That's an old American tradition that I wish had not gone away as far as it has.
