When we moved to Marin County and lived in Kentfield - which is considered
upscale by some -- I wasn't there a week before a neighbor put a note on my
garbage can, "We live in a nice neighborhood, we don't leave garbage cans
out where our neighbors can see them."

Meanwhile this Dr. Jerk who lived next door has the old classic "wreck of a"
car parks behind my garage and swears it's his property (my driveway) and
he would never move it for 8 years. His son, who said his friend could
leave a car jacked up so that I couldn't get out of the garage when I asked
him to move the extra car said I should back my car in so I could drive out
forward; when I said that I wouldn't do that, he said, "You're just like
all the rest of the Americans." When we sold our house to an attorney, I
noticed that the car was gone, but damned fast!

When I hear about garbage cans being left in garages, versus outdoors, that
still gets my dander up. Some people think their ... doesn't/don't stink!
