homeless types that were camped out by my fence. My situation is
different a bit because it is a parking lot where people often stop to eat
lunch, dinner or whatever other activity they choose to. I used to
complain to the town, police and jemal's managers all the time Bruce. I
even thought about installing a sprinkler that i could control from my house to
get them back when they do it to my fence, but that would not be nice.</span></strong><span

don't urinate in public in Calvert Hills or University Park. The

excuses for it. They raise holy hell until something is done about
it. We don't do that in Riverdale. We don't do anything, but make
jokes about the most crass and unacceptable behavior imaginable. Pretty
soon the youngsters will catch on an they will be peeing in the streets.

looked out the window and there was a car parked in front of my house. A
guy got out, walked to the rear of his car, opened the trunk, then pulled down
his zipper and proceeded to urinate right in the street in front of my
house. Didn't even flinch when the dogs barked! Not having my shoes
on...I quickly found them and got them tied ....to go out and tell this guy his
behavior was unacceptable. Unfortunately he pulled away before I could
get out there to demand he clean up his mess. I am asking the list for
the best way to handle this kind of situation. We are so close to fast
food chains with bathrooms, I can't understaned why one would have to use the
street. Any comments or suggestions? Audrey<o:p></o:p></span></p>
