Let’s see…
- There’s a man, once a respected business leader and pillar of the community, who now speaks to his grass and barks back at noisy dogs.
- A family of five seems to determined to give me a heart attack by allowing me to witness an endless stream of near-accidents. I’ve heard of kids climbing the walls, but not the roof!
- The most disturbing incident began with a garage fire – just picture Randy Quaid in Christmas Vacation dumping his RVs septic tank, but with a garage in flames – and ended with a double homicide. Seriously.
Yes, neighbors rule… We need human contact, but at what cost?
Oh well, at least my street isn’t boring…
As for the milestone… I’ve crossed 200,000 views! A bit late for that announcement, I know, but I’ve been busy! Speaking of which, The Belllman Chronicles is truly “live” on Amazon.com and the Kindle version is coming soon. I hope!
Holy crap! A double homicide on your street? The only thing weird like that to happen around my house was a huge DEA bust a few years ago…
You come in second…
Haha.
I think I love your neighbours!!! I’d trade them for “Roe Tattoo” and “The Town Fat Guy” there were once my neighbours!!!
“Love” is a strong word, Woman!
where we lived a few years there was a homicide 3 doors up – and I knew nothing about it. Our street was a thorough fare to the school, so everyone was asking me what happened as they were blocked from driving through. I had my suspicians, the sort you get when you see all the vehicles but know nothing… they ended up knowing more than me,lol!
!!!
Neighbours can be fun, or not!
Congrats on the 200K
Thanks, Jennifer. You’ve helped make it all possible!
>Oh well, at least my street isn’t boring…
- Aw, man. Now I think *my* street is boring.
Fodder for a follow-up literary manifesto perhaps?
‘Home on the (de)Range(d)’?
‘Mad Men. Families, Too’?
>As for the milestone… I’ve crossed 200,000 views!
- So people all over the big wide world laughed and learned something 200,000 times.
Mazel tov, Mr.Hook! May your (cyber) tribe increase!

You never fail to make me smile, Kate! Thanks!
Looking forward to the Kindle version.
Me too! Soon, I promise!
I’m trying to get Back Barking into the Olympics.
Good luck!
My! What interesting neighbors you have. My apartment neighbors are quiet quiet. Just Mormon missionaries and such.
Boring ain’t that bad… Trust me!
200, 000! That is so many! You must have thousands of followers. Congratulations!
Thanks, Susie! I couldn’t have done it without you!
My neighbors have some cute little dogs that I can hear from time-to-time, but that’s about it. Thank goodness for peace and quiet!
Yes, tranquility rules!
And the strangeness never ends! The neighbors – not the views! (And not surprising at all.) Congrats!
Thanks! And you’re right, the strangeness never ends…
