GO BEARS!!!
Score is 25-14 right now, GOOOOOOOOO BEARS, oh excuse me now it is 31 to 14 LOL
GO BEARS!!!
ALL THE WAY
Rude Bears fans
Some of my friends went to the Saints/Bears game and were amazed and ashamed for the rudeness of the fans. He is a high school football coach so he has seen some team rivalries some severe, but never like this. Being booed, being followed and surrounded in the bathroom, etc. Terrible and shame on the people of Chicago
Thanks, and here are the grizzly bears in Alaska.

Male grizzly bears, for one. (sm)
Snakes. Male porcupines. Reptiles (Oops, that's a whole group of creatures, all living alone). Spiders. Female sea horses. Great white sharks. Most fish (oops, another group).
my neighborhood is looking better sm
and better even with the renters! LOL My worst nightmare is that I would be next to someone like HER. I will take my neighborhood and my husky dog (who digs holes in the fenced in back yard) my lovely warm house, family and all of it over her snooty neighborhood any day of the week! There is a whole lot to say for warmth and love in a HOME over the perfectly manicured lawn in the iron fist ruled neighborhood!
Sounds like you would make a great neighbor!!!!!!!!
That sounds like my neighborhood
Don't you just love it? I hear a lot about awful neighbors and neighbors being unfriendly, and I can't even imagine. I used to just walk into my friend's house and vice versa. They're definitely like family. Unfortunately, they moved about 10 miles away, but we see each other every weekend for get togethers. In the summers we have no less than 20 kids running around pool jumping from house to house and general fun.
Neighborhood Association Would Not Allow
There are certain colors for the homes here and that would be totally out. I love my neighborhood!
In my neighborhood which is a reallly nice one, I
would not even open the door to someone dressed as a police. In fact living in Atlanta before had a person dressed as police to come to my home (after 2000) and asked to use my phone. I had storm doors on and had double dead bolt doors and I told him give me the # and I would be glad to call for him and give message. Here, 2 ladies came to my door about 2 weeks ago, cold and wanted to know if they could come in. I shook my head no. I could see them thru a window pane on my door. I do not, ever, open the door to anyone unless they are known to me. Very dangerous wherever you live and telling them your husband isn't home, OMG. Do you not have a phone to hello, call the police if he were to show up again?
Had our neighborhood yard sale on Sat.
and while one Mom had her back turned her daughter sold a $118 Lee Middleton doll for $2. Guess the person knew what a find they had becuase they high-tailed it out of the neighborhood. What a rotten person!
Find a kid in your neighborhood to show you! :) nm

I think she said in her post that it was a teenager in her neighborhood.
My daughter would do it for that amount just for spending money. I wish I could have someone come in just once a month to do major cleaning. My daughter and I with the help of my husband do cleaning every Saturday with of course spot cleaning during the week, but just once a month would be great to do the things I hate doing.
We usually go to house parties in our neighborhood. - NM

A gentleman that used to live in our neighborhood
had this happen at about the age or 65. I still don't know much of the details but his started with a terrible headache and he ended up being rushed to a major medical center and was kept there for about 45 days. This was 2 years ago. He is doing great now. Still see him out mowing, shoveling snow, walking his dog, etc. Hope all goes well with your friend.
said "used" to live in neighborhood, duh, still does. nm

Don't listen to the neighborhood cats! (sm)
People like that will always have something to say no matter what you do. Some people just look better with longer hair. I love short hairdos but they don't look good on me. I am 40 & my hair is right at shoulder length - it has never looked good on me shorter and I have thought about the fact that as I get older I probably will still want to keep it longer. I will always wear my hair however I want - you should too. Perhaps at your neighbors' ages they should grow up and not worry about something as silly as someone else's hair length!
Would you be annoyed if a home like this was in your neighborhood?
SEQUIM, Wash. -- It's mostly lavender, with fuchsia trim.
It's safe to say the neighbors don't like this garage/apartment in Sequim.
"It has become the focus of the community," said Brian Juel, who's view now includes the purple building. "Instead of looking at this view we're looking at this house."
But instead of letting it be, they're taking their dislike to a whole new level. Blame the bad economy or the poor housing market -- two dozen neighbors claim all the purple is driving down the value of their homes.
They've signed a petition asking the Clallam County assessor to give them a break on their property taxes because of the boldly colored home nearby.
Andrea Taylor lives next door and every day she opens her curtains and there it is.
"It's taken away from the whole character of the neighborhood," she said of the home. "When we look out and see the pristine, calm quiet and your eyes are just drawn to this purple blob."
Juel said he hasn't had much luck talking with the owners of the purple home.
"Basically it's a one-way discussion -- they haven't returned my e-mails," he said. "We've talked about individual rights but, you know, the rights of the community are kind of trespassed here, also."
Neighbors say the owners live in California and decided to style the exterior after victorian row houses in San Francisco. The owners also plan to build a new victorian home next door in a few years.
No one has moved in and the owners could not be reached for comment.
No covenants exist in this community to force the owners to change their decor. And, after all, beauty is in the eye of - in this case - the owner.
Getting the county assessor to reassess the land in the area could be very difficult to do. Even if the assessor agrees to evaluate the properties, it may not happen until 2010.
Move into an association neighborhood and
you don’t have that problem. The places are not rented out here.
My sis says buy the smallest house in a good neighborhood. n/m

Our neighborhood sets a date each year for
a yardsale. The neighborhood is still growing, so we usually have a really great turn out. We haven't participated in a couple of years so believe me we have the "junk" to get rid of. I just wish we would do this at the beginning of summer for a little extra spending $ for vacation.
The people in the next neighborhood over have pot bellied pigs
They have three of them. They're too cute. I'm sure they eat a lot, but from what I know they're supposed to be good pets. My brother-in-law was actually going to get one once. I can't remember why he changed his mind.
Die-hard Eagles fans here too! Whole family loves the Eagles! We are cheering for the Bears in the
Go Bears!!!
I wish you lived in my neighborhood! I would invite you in for some coffee and a chat!
I've lived in my neighborhood for 22 years, and only four neighbors out of 20 or so even look up and say hello. It's sad. Everyone is so busy, and a few are self-absorbed. I've tried for years, invited people over, simply waved and smiled. Hardly ever an acknowledgement. If you lived in my neighborhood, I'm sure we'd be friends!
Sparklers on the 4th of July and also Tin-Can-Alley with all the neighborhood kids.
