EricKei -- in all honesty I wish it hadn't been raining, otherwise I'd use what little spray paint I have left to spray something not so nice on Neighbor #1's trash can. The funny thing about our curb-side trash cans is that that are all the same standard, city-issued ugly monsters and sometimes gets mixed up if the trash collectors decide to fling them wherever after they've picked the trash up. I've gotten mine mixed up with my neighbors on the left quite often, it happens but never been a problem -- I'm just hoping that when Neighbor #1 [leaf guy] gets back, he'll realize that he doesn't have that monstrosity any longer -- and that one of his neighbors from across the street has two trash cans instead of the one. That or he'll have to wait a couple of weeks for a new one.
Yes one of us has his, no we're not giving it back until he asks for it, yes we know it's in bad taste to keep it from him but we'll take the bad karma from that. It'll be worth the verbal beating he'll be getting once he realizes that one of us has his trash can, I just hope I'm off when/if that happens.
MoonCat -- I wish I could, especially for Neighbor #2 -- and I'm not the only person who has a strong hunch that they are responsible for a lot of the broken glass on my end of the street. Neighbor #1's idiocy, while a moronic move on it's own and quite possibly could've caused some major damage if it hadn't been caught on time, was at least a mess that could be cleaned up right away, Neighbor #2's on the other hand.....well, the roommate and I are going to have to scour our driveway very good tomorrow before either one of us braves the world beyond our street. We couldn't get all of it earlier with the way the weather had been and the amount of water that was still draining into the storm drain by mid-afternoon, so we're hoping that we don't have to go after Neighbor #2 for two sets of new tires [can you say document, document, document? *evil grin* ].
