When a house goes all out to decorate for Christmas. Even funnier when that house is a twin and the other half does nothing. cell phone picture while caroling, dec 2009
Too stinkin’ funny! It took me a second to figure out what was going on in the photo. I live in a duplex (“twin”) too and when the other side’s occupants mow the front they always leave a flippin’ line down the middle and canNOT possibly bring themselves to mow the other 3 feet in front of my half, as I do when it’s my turn. Ah, neighbors!
too funny! There’s one house near our daughters here that does everything over the top crazy like that and the house next door has a lighted sign that says “bah humbug”. And that’s all. Why oh why didn’t I get a picture of that?
(feel free to borrow the idea ,furious. I won’t tell. )
I love it. The line of lights marking the middle is the favorite. Next year maybe you can host a Bossy Holiday Lights Tour (with furious in it too!). Rent a big bus, serve us drinks, and voila! Instant money-maker!

January 8, 2010 at 10:27 amIt’s kind of like that hypothetical question recently answered at Slate.com: If a Siamese Twin Commits Murder, Does His Brother Get Punished, Too?

But I also feel for the people in the other half–really, how do you compete with that?!
