    I like Eastwood's option, too, but in AR-15 instead of his M-1.

    IJAG got me in trouble.

    That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

    I love neighbor wars. It's so much fun. My entire childhood was spent in a neighborhood where everybody was at war. Over dogs. Over property lines. Over noise. Over choice of insecticide. Over everything.

    One of the great joys of life if you have some fun with it and don't take yourself so seriously. Just spend your free time trying to one-up your neighbor, beat them at their own game, get creative.

    I know, I know.

    Get a life :)

    When I was a kid, it used to drive my dad nuts that a neighbor would mow part of our lawn. The reason? The guy cut the grass so short that it would burn up in the summer and be brown where he cut into our yard.

    In the avatar, smokin' hot, if skanky. In the post, Ladybird Johnson. Having a little identity crisis there IJAG?

    Rico, the low shrub thing, if your 'hood association allows it, sounds like the best solution to the lawn issue. I was coming at it from my view of only caring that my grass not be high enough for an apex predator to hide in. Clearly, others are more exacting in their lawn standards.

    Novvie, you are SO lucky I adore you. You might be the only person who could call Alyssa skanky and live.

    Seriously, some dude mowing your lawn is not worth getting your blood pressure up. As long as he realizes that it is your yard so there is not future issue, what's the big deal?

    How can you get pissed about him calling animal control on your loose dog if you're calling the cops because he is mowing the yard.

    It really isn't worth feuding with your neighbors over nothing.

    Whoever said to invite him over and talk about it over a beer probably had the right idea.
