i had a crazy neighbor who rigged his radio shack police scanner to circumvent frequency blocks and listened to our *other* neighbors. he had wires strung up between trees in the middle of the woods. crazy. also, missing and rotting teeth.

point is, he saved my dogs' lives. the other neighbor was plotting with the VP of the neighborhood association to kill my dogs. no shit. he brought his scanner over, and I called the guy and confronted him about it. seconds after i hung up he called the VP and they both wondered how the hell i knew. it was that crazy toothless creepy peeper who saved my beautiful Nesta and Shilo.
