Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against it by any means. He can do as he pleases as long as I don’t have to deal with any blow back from it. There’s just that curiosity factor of “Why is he always up there”. Trust me, I would much rather try to figure out if he is actually growing pot rather than if my neighbors were a front for a cannibalistic cult lol ---

No music needed. The wife sits in her lounge chair in the back yard hitting the pipe. On a breezy day, I’m pretty sure the whole neighborhood can smell it. My first clue was within the first month of living there, she came over and asked us “Hey, do guys like to party?” My gf and I looked at each other and knew that our partying wasn’t her “partying” She’s basically the female version of this guy from Dazed and Confused: ![http://d3ny4pswk2x1ig.cloudfront.net/000755915b5800aad037214ba42a2a5625c9b478fa90b1ffec672964.jpg](http://d3ny4pswk2x1ig.cloudfront.net/000755915b5800aad037214ba42a2a5625c9b478fa90b1ffec672964.jpg) For my next house, I have decided that we will be interviewing the neighbors before purchasing the house. Me: “Hi, I’m looking to buy this house next door to you. I’d like to know, are you a “waver”? Neighbor: “I don’t know what you mean?” Me: Ok, I’ll be blunt. If I buy this house, will you promise to never wave to me on any given day?” Neighbor: “Uh, sure…” Me: “Great, looks like the house is sold!” ---

Jerry and Elaine try to decide if the new neighbors are “wavers”. They decide there’s only one way to make sure it doesn’t happen. They approach the neighbor and kindly ask that he not wave every time Jerry leaves or comes home. The neighbor is very confused but he agrees to this. When Kramer shows up to see Jerry’s new house, he waves to Jerry’s neighbor. He doesn’t get a return wave and a scuffle ensues. When Kramer finally arrives in Jerry’s kitchen, he tells Jerry how rude his new neighbor was and that’s “No way to welcome your new neighbors and his friends”, but he took care of it. Jerry and Elaine look at each in astonishment and the show ends. - - - Updated - - - > [@1QIKZ](#): > > Wow, is this really the opinion / view people on here have of me?

But me and my wife grew up there went to school there. we Both love north buffalo. we first lived in Allentown but lack of parking killed it. now being close to Hertal/main has alot of the same feeling as Allentown but more parking and less crime. For me its city or Rural. I wont ever live in the Burbs again. ---
