Classy - Downright Classy

I am a spiritual person. Really I am. My language doesn't reflect it - but that's because I'm too lazy to think of other words to use most times.

Sorry got distracted. Seriously - I was brought up as a Christian and have strong morals and values. I live by the Golden Rule - Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. I break as few of the 10 Commandments as possible. I know my Bible and, basically, am not ashamed of who I am.

Knowing that - why oh why oh why would you use childrens sidewalk chalk to write "inspriational Christian verses" on my steps. Outside my house. Front and back. A message as I leave my home or go out into my backyard.

This was not by a child - this was done by an adult. Trying to "help". Help me with what I don't know - but what it did do is tick me off.

I'm not a fan of sidewalk chalk. Oh - I had it for kids that came over but I always kept it in the back yard and always cleaned it off. I don't like the clutter or feel of it. It's just me.

So yeah - now I got neighbors leaving me inspiriation sidewalk graffetti. Yeah, that adds class to the bungelow.

Yet another reason I'm glad my neighbors are scared of me.

Good grief! (That's nuckin futz!)

I'd be getting a piece of chalk and writing "I have a Webcam pointed at you RIGHT NOW" on my steps.

LMAO!

Sorry... I just thought you'd like that.

So much for a daily Proverb or Psalm. :)

Leave a friendly message that all messages in chalk will be answered with messages in lead.

How about posting a sign: "he who is without sin cast the first stone/write messages on my steps"
or "I'm praying God forgives your judgemental
_ss."

Hmm, that's original, I've never heard of anyone doing that before, heh, funny.

You could always sneak over and draw pentagrams on your neighbor's steps in blood....

Hah! Great, Grau! I was just going to make a similar suggestion... involving three sixes!

Hey, it only says that you're screwed if you take that number on your head or hand. :P

You have some great suggestions here! I still want to know what the quotes were. Maybe we can come up with some great biblical counter quotes.

Posted by: Bou at July 20, 2005 01:30 PM

Yikes! There is freedom of speech, and there is also sheer, utter lunacy. I like Grau's idea...

Neighbors? I ain't got no stinking neighbors!

Anyway Here's an idea

RadioShack sells them. GO in and ask for a 49-2569

Its "simulated" security camera complete with blnking light and fake cables. Stick it on your porch facing the sidewalk :D

Oh and break out the water house a muriatic acid for the chalk ;D

Ok hun, we are getting you out of there soon! Very soon. I'm going to go play the lotto now!

Those weirdos are freaking me out! Have you trained Cody to attack yet?

I think you should start decorating for halloween early. And keep a broom outside your front door.
