Is something about to happen? On Monday, our next door neighbors had to call 911, and got three fire trucks plus an ambulance, when their camper (parked in the driveway while they restore it) overloaded their house wiring and started a small fire. Tonight, our OTHER next-door neighbors have cops in the yard because a car came down the road, ran into their yard, smacked into their car, and then the driver got out and fled! Photo taken a few minutes ago.[More:] If you want to see a few notes that diagram what is what, look here.

It's BIZARRE for our quiet little neighborhood to have emergency services out twice in three days. And the fact that they were "hits" on either side of us caused me to tell my partner, "God's finding his range, and is about to send an asteroid or a rain of frogs down on our house. Or something."

He didn't think it was funny, and has locked all the doors. :)
Just the new year flexin'.

not eponysterical, is it BP?

No, see, this is good. (For you.) With all the other shit, the likelihood of anything happening to your house/property/person is drastically reduced.

Sucks for your neighbors, though.

A-ha! This is like that scene in The World According To Garp. :)

Don't bad things happen in threes? I'd keep the cell phone charged and maybe some sort of baseball bat under the bed.

Yeah. And maybe some rusty forks handy in case you need to gouge their eyes out.

Lost nuggets from the 80s || Huh. Looks like Obama and Huckabee.
