My next door neighbor and the neighbor across the street have some sort
of feud going on. She keeps alluding to some "incident" but won't tell
me what happened. The guy across the street is a seasonal resident who
is apparently going to be living here permanently as he is getting a
divorce. Used to be he'd show up with his wife but that stopped last
year. He started showing up alone. I'd already figured out they were
going to split. I mean, who goes on vacation for a month at a time
without their spouse?

Anyway, he's been gone for a couple of weeks. He called me this morning
and asked if I'd unlock his door and turn on the porch lights; he won't
get here until around midnight. He lost his keys. Oh, and DON'T TELL
the neighbor I unlocked the door!

He asked if I knew what was going on. No, and I really don't want to.
He said this other neighbor used to just walk into his house
unannounced. I have no idea why she'd do that. He said he has spoken
to Security and they know not to allow her to set foot on his property!
She'd be trespassing!

WOW.

I get the feeling she wanted some sort of relationship with him and was
rebuffed. (This is a woman whom I have seen personally working in her
back yard, which faces the 11th green of the golf course, wearing
nothing but her granny panties and sometimes a bra. An exhibitionist?
Dying for some attention?)

At any rate, this guy does NOT want her to know the door is unlocked.
Okay, fine. It's not like she's my best friend. After this, please
leave me out of it. I am perfectly content to sit back with my books
and my cat and my newsgroup. I certainly do not hang out with either of
them so don't drag me into the drama.

They're both in their 70's. I had no idea I moved to Peyton Place. LOL
