Wow! Am I in agreement with you guys!
Some idiot builds his house under a glide path to a 50 year old airport; then bellyaches about the noise of airplanes...
A clown builds near a farm and complains about odor...Duh!
My friend restores and collects old farm tractors...besides his shops he has a line of tractors awaiting restoration. He has lived there and restored tractors for 18 years.
A couple years ago, some dude moved out from the city or burbs and built a house overlooking his property!
Almost immediately, the complaints started..." I didn't spend XX X thousands of dollars on a new home, just so I could view a bunch of old tractors!"
He went to town board meetings and raised cain, until the town board came out to talk to my friend , Neil.
Somehow, they couldn't find Neil, so called him later telling him how his neighbor said his place was a "pig pen".
Neil told them...I'll put a sign up, so you can find me!
He went to his shop and cut out a silhouette of a pig, about 3X5 feet, and hung it neatly, in full color, on a decorative signpost beside the road.
I stopped by his place a couple weeks ago, and the town "fathers" had not yet visited him.
I asked, "Neil, this is still zoned agricultural isn't it?" He sais "sure is!".
I said, " When this comes to a head, why don't you tell your neighbor;
..I have to have something to do, so if I HAVE to get rid of my tractors, I will probably put in a couple hundred head of hogs!"
Note:Neil lives about a third of a mile due west of the complainer, and particularly on the warm summer days, the rising currents go right up around that new house!
