Well guys it all started a little while back when some lowlives moved in next door to me. They got in trouble and went to jail for drugs for a few days. After that they came home. They were out for a month or so and then went back for snatchin purses at Walmart. They then returned for a brief period of time and went to jail FOR GOOD for a while on more severe drug charges. All this time…the grass isn’t cut…trash has accumulated in the driveway and the place stinks to high heaven. Well, about 6 weeks or so back his brother moves in and is no better than him. He “says” he is gonna take care of the place and hopes to straighten out his brother when he returns from jail. His words hold true long enough for him to get the power cut off because he owes AL Power over a grand. (How do you even get it that high before they cut it off for good anyways?) He stays away for a week or so and then I notice they are back... I also notice he has a meter back in the service, but there is no meter box cover. Having done electrical work for a while and knowing what I do about AL Power I KNOW they didn’t do that. The meter is obviously stolen. When I seen this I called AL Power and they came and waited on them for a few hours to return. They never did so they cut the feed at the pole and confiscated the stolen meter. No one has been there for a couple weeks except for the occasional car in the driveway late and the smell of weed in the air. Finally, I go cut the grass on Monday and pickup the trash because I just can’t take it anymore. I have riding mower and it was all I could do to get it down. The trash is full of maggots and flies and God only knows what else. (Yes, I wore latex gloves) That evening a guy comes by in a work van and I go over to meet him. He explains that he in the uncle of the brothers that are gone and in jail now. He says that he is watching over the place until the “brothers” mom and dad get into town. They live in Orlando and bought the house for them. (Big mistake) They are either gonna move in or sell it (thank you Lord). He says that NOONE is supposed to be there and to call him if they are. He also said that he came by the night before and chased some punk away that claimed to have permission from the former “tenants”. He told him not to return as he will call the sheriff. I explain to him my concerns as I have small children and this is a nice neighborhood. It pisses me off that people like that come in here and screw it up. He is in agreement and assures me that things will soon change when they get here. I somewhat believe him as he seems like a nice guy. He also actually HAS a job because he has a plumbing van. This is a major improvement over the former word I received from the unemployed dope head bums. I take his number and go. A little later the same night I see him and a sheriff back over there. Someone has broken the back door in and he files a report. My other neighbor enlightens the sheriff on the fact that he has seen someone in the wee hours going in there. The sheriff agrees to stop by on his rounds and check it out.
HERE IS THE PART THAT REALLY PISSES ME OFF
I return from the gym this morning to get changed and get to work. My neighbor comes out to let me know the sheriff arrested someone Tuesday morning over there at about 2 am. He also informs me that the punk has been plugging a cord into my house on the side and stealing power. He also shows me where he has tapped into my phone line and used my phone. I thank him and get to work. >:(
The more I think about it the madder I get. I am however thankful for the fact that I didn’t see it one morning while returning from my workout or I may have laid my religion down for a brief moment and wound up in jail. I do wish I would have had the privilege of hold a 12ga to his chin until the sheriff arrived though. >:(
I don’t have a long distance carrier so I am not worried about any charges on my phone line. I am ticked over the power as my bill was a little high last time. Oh well I just need to vent. Thanks for listening. ::)
