A Spin Off of Keep a Word/Drop a Word and Music, Pics, and Whatnot

@Jimi if you haven't contacted your neighbors about their brat, hold up a minute.

I haven't thought about much else this evening, than how you are a peaceful and benevolent dweller in your world, and now your peace is being disrupted by a little thug, just because you're in close proximity to him.

So here is my idea, and if you like it I'll translate it for you. Don't you have a big wooded area near your home? You have mentioned raccoons and ground hogs, among other things. So here is my idea for a discussion with the brat's parents.

-begin

Your boy uses my yard as a shortcut, though I have asked him to go around it. The food we grow is not for fun or a hobby. It is food for our daily table. It is how we can afford to eat. I want you to know, because our garden is invaded at night by many small animals from around here, which cause destruction to our food source, I will be putting out steel traps in random entry points. They won't kill a boy, but they hurt, and may cause broken bones. Please be aware of it, and warn the boy.

That would work fine except I let the animals be because they don't really bother my garden , the rabbit uses it to hide and he helps by eating the weeds, he actually eats more weeds than garden and he deposits fertilizer everywhere he goes. But the rest sounds great.
The biggest problem is the parents promote him to do these things.

Call The Police !!!! Keep calling every time that little creep harasses, threatens and trespasses you and Jean. You will never win a war against teenagers. Sounds like he has friends encouraging his behavior which is scary.
Sorry you are going thru this, since it isn't you causing the problem.
Do not booby trap your yard- it is illegal, if he gets hurt he can sue you believe it or not. Put up No Trespassing signs, maybe buy some security cameras or a Ring type doorbell that has no subscription fee( I have that kind) so you have proof of trespassing or at least a warning so you can call police. Jimi let the police deal with him, please!

Yes that's what I am gonna do next time the little brat does anything. I just try to live a peaceful life and cause anyone trouble but next time I am callin the police.

Jimi, it's a bluff. You're not actually going to use steel traps, especially when you love having your bunnies around. I should have made that more clear. Yeesh you could get hurt yourself, or Jean could get hurt. I'm just saying the thought of having a steel trap clamp onto their little thug's foot could be the deterrent, and get the parents to tell him to stay out of your yard. Just the thought of it, not any reality, but they won't know it's a bluff.

You think I misspelled it, but almost everyone who has ever covered this Cole Porter song misspelled it.

Viktor Lazlo got it right.

Miss Pedantic Panties is done ranting.
