Katie, that guy's a butthead and you don't deserve that. Now I am wondering if a letter written by a local pro-Green congress-critter could shut those folks up. You have the right to dry laundry in the sun!
Travers: Perhaps you'll favor us with a demonstration while we're here. Buffy: You mean, like, right now? 'Cause, already had my recommended daily dose of fights tonight.
'Potential'
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
The right to dry your laundry has become controversial all over the place, lately. It's a damn shame. I'm sorry you're getting the wrong end of that, Katie.

Katie! There are others that are better with the smiting, but I'd be delighted to park one of my trashed autos and party loudly with you when you want to get kicked out. Also, very handy with the alibi if you need at any point in time.
Cashmere, my you are looking perky! Good drugs and quick recovery ~ma.
I'm home. Took a couple teen boys to Applebees. It was happy hour! Whee! Well, only 2 little glasses of wine because of the whole driving home thing. Teen boy chatter is less giggly than teen girl chatter, but entertaining. Also, they never heard totes before. They are also quite sure that their HS is way too hood to ever hear it.
So my plan for the evening includes working on the 76 episodes of recorded television from This Season that I haven't watched yet. Considering the hour, I might chop that down to 75.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I like your plan Laura.
and I do not get the laundry issue. Not that I love the look of laundry , but it is just clothing. and I have to hang some stuff, so why not outside. I have a faded garden gnome -- shall I drop him in your Neighbor's Yard, Katie?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Katie, TCG works in a job where he has to deal with complaints like that from crazy people often, and even he is amazed that someone would complain about laundry.

I had a clothes line for years, but don't at the moment. I miss my sheets and towels being line dried. Now that it isn't so hot out I should put a line up again.

Herding cats for fun
This guy is a crank case without much to occupy him. I mean, one of his big complaints against us is that we have a mis-matched covering on a part of our MH skirting, which is propped shut with a couple of bricks. It was like that when we moved in. Now it's a heinous assault upon his sense of decency, even though my van is parked between it and him about 90% of the time.
At least I can provide reams and reams of data from Laundry Line dot Org, to support my case, but I think it's a tiresome waste of my time.
Okay, big Buffista Garbage Party at Katie's! We'll hurl beer bottles and shout about porn. It'll be mad fun! Then we'll enjoy the scent of some line-dried laundry and really piss him off.
Heh heh. Much more cheerful now. Thanks!! Type to you soon.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Katie, can you complain about him being a peeping tom? Just an idea to combat a nosey neighbor.
GC, tons of ~ma! Thank goodness, with all this crazy, you have the most adorable bundle of joy in ya! He'll come out just fine, one way or another. And when he does, all this crap won't matter. In the meantime, can you file an insurance fraud case on asshat doc that was supposed to be covered, but only by proxy?
ION the rain~ma worked. It was spritzing most of the day. Apparently I needed to ask for Cancel~ma. Fuckers put up tents. But get this. It was in a brand new park. They put the sod down last night around midnight. Fresh sod. In the rain. MUD CITY! They roped off the lawn, so 95% of the audience was 3/4 of a block away. In the rain. Uggggg. The actors were not happy. More bitter than me! :: sigh ::

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Good God, GC! This is absolutely appalling! Wishing you all the -ma in the world!
Boob-ma to Cash, and neighbour-ma to Katie (and, fucking hell, I'm astounded that one even CAN complain about somebody hanging up their washing to dry. It's akin to complaining that someone doesn't microwave their dinner, afaic).
wrt the word "grill", I use it interchangeably with toast. I remain puzzled by the American term "grilled cheese", because it looks to me like fried cheese, rather than toasted cheese (which is what our grilled cheese sandwich generally is).
...otoh, a Toastie machine does pretty much fry the bread, I suppose, since you butter the outside of the sandwich before sticking it into the press.
...
...Huh. No wonder my kids get puzzled by English words.
