TOTALLY GEEKED!

So not talking about them helps how flannie? You and apple keep saying that but keeping silent does nothing. I also don't give a rats arse what they want or what they don't. Seems to me you two are the ones letting them run your lives.

It would be if they shot and killed or burned Itty Bitty alive.  I'm sure the people in the nightclub didn't think it would happen to them either...

 Why thank you for the visual!

Are you proud of yourself now? Even I don't stoop to THAT level.

Hey, you know EXACTLY what you did, and you ARE proud of it.

I WORRY for my grandchildren.  While you go about your day, thinking it couldn't happen to you and yours...

THAT speaks volumes.

Absolutely.  Worry causes you to take precautions and actually admit that there is an entire population of people that would love nothing more than to see them dead.  So I go to lengths to protect them.  I don't sit around and do nothing...

Course I might be afraid too if I lived in your neighborhood.

Uh huh.

Doubt you have anyone selling anything in your neighborhood.

Anything legal, anyway.

 Flan: If that visual bothers you, you ought to stop ignoring that ISIS is a problem. You don't want them talked about - which I'm sure they'd like so they can do their terrorism unhindered. You also don't propose any solutions to stop them.

And yes, you do stoop that level. Daily. You can't resist taking pot shots at Lily and TD. You've taken quite a few at me. You're not innocent so stop playing the victim.

We use the carport door, but it's open right now.

You know how many times I go to bed with it open and get up with it open?

At least once a week.

The front door was open for 3 days about a month ago.

We left the back door open for a week when we were on vacation.

 City vs. country living.

How close is your closest neighbor?

flan

 I've always lived in the city. Closest neighbor is within 50 feet, usually. Every place I've lived that had a screen door, the solid door was always open. The apartments I've lived in haven't had screen doors but sometimes the solid door would get left open.

My first apartment, the door would always be open because the breeze coming in from the pool area kept my apartment nice and cool. My neighbor right across the hall (3 feet away) would leave his door open too. We both had dogs and our dogs would go between our apartments playing with each other.

Then they aren't real friends.  I want my friends to feel welcome in my home whenever they feel the need to drop by.  Whether in the neighborhood, stopping by to see if we want to go out to dinner, or just stooping by because they feel like talking on their way home from work. 

You live in an alternate universe.  It's kinda weird...

 I have had friends stop by cause their kid needed to pee.

Yes.

They just show up.

 

Tell you something else, most our friends and a few neighbors and the whole family know where we keep the extra key, too.

I think having relationships with neighbors makes a difference.

I went to school with the kids that grew up on this block.

My mom drove the school bus through this neighborhood.

I was 20 when we moved in but I was friends with most the families.

Then the house to the right was sold to the parents of a guy friend I met my freshman year.

We all watch each other's kids.

And our kids have grown up together.

Community makes a difference.

 Lower insurance rates. Its a break in alarm, smoke alarm, CO2 alarm, and weather alarm.

 Of course it does.

When DH1 was killed, my neighbors all knew what had happened & helped out. We used to have cookouts in the court. Our next-door neighbors went to Kauai with us 4 years ago.

But, people move. Kids grow up.
