Howard, I drive by this house everytime I head for my place in Vermont..

Rumour has it that the owners of the house and the town fathers dont get along.. Hence the "in your face" paint job! This house has been paintd in this fashion for going on 12 years now, and heck you dont see it from your living room!

I once lived in a development that had a homeowners association... getting away from those stepford assholes was financially one of the best things I have ever done..

What ever happened to individuality

I guess I should withdraw my application..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)

Preparation-H is supposed to be hard to get off... once applied, and if you keep touching it....

it's not going to heal.

Also you said 'withdraw', this concerns me, because it's a topical ointment.

Howard,

Can't beat em, join em. Paint and landscape your house exactly like the presidents. Become the HOA president and then make your changes... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

We bought a small place & 4 acres on a lake wayyyy up in the mountains. Wouldn't ya know it there was a HOA with a bunch of anal Hitlers runnin around. This house was the eye sore of the lake for 15 years & we remodeled it complete with metal roof, new windows and paint inside & out. But they wouldn't leave us alone (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/finger.gif)

We had to go thru the HOA for colors and the type of windows. What a bunch of BS. What really chapped us was when we tore down the old dry rotted deck & was in the middle of pouring a patio when an ass hole came up & said we had to stop & get permission to do that work...

We thru empty beer cans (& some full ones) at him till he left!

To drive 2 hours away from civilization and have the asshole HOA tell ya what to do is beyond what I can take.

BTW.... it's on the market (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Ya know, it's not just this. CA DMV story:

When I bought the V8 car it did not have a front plate. The car is kind of 'noticible' so didn't want to get pulled over for no plate. Blow the extra $45 to get personalized when I find out MTLMTR is available. Cool!

Go to DMV and order plates. Turn in old plate and get temp permit. 6 weeks later, DMV sends letter, plates are in. Go in and wait almost half an hour while they look for them. Finally find one motorcycle plate that says MTLMTR. Cute, but not quite what I wanted for the 914. Yada yada, they will order another. 6 weeks later get a letter from DMV. They want an extra $45 since I would not accept the plates ordered. Right! I call and ask for my old plate back and a refund. Today I get yet another letter stating that if I do not come in and get my plate(s) they will destroy them.

For my convenience, the plates are in Modesto, 200+ miles away, not my local DMV. They give me an 800# to call. Can't wait to make this call tomorrow.

It ain't the HOA's, dems, republicans, christians, muslims or nazis. It's the idiots that are taking over the world. Thank God for Absolut and thank God I'm old; don't know how much more of this I can take (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

I love the fact that I can have 2 boats, couple of old snowmobiles, stack of firewood (tarped in whatever color I want), any kind of landscaping, my dog, and whatever the F else I want in my yard.

I will never again live in a neighboorhood with an HOA.


My 914 may even end up on jackstands in the driveway if I feel like it.

I hate to tell you that you can't run away from it by dying.

My dad died in 98. He loved to play golf so on his birthday I would take a couple of golf balls over and put them on his grave. Last year my mom got a note from the cemetary say that golf ball were not an "appropriate demonstration of affection".

I hope your dad is shooting under par on the big course in the sky and laughing his ass off. Tell the cemetary nothing, but start leaving golf balls all over the place. I've got a bunch of old shag balls if you need them. That's how you get even with the idiots of the world, not by screaming. My house is getting painted just about the same color it was before.

Spoke to DMV this morning, and got about 50 'You can't do that, sir' responses. They told me I had to pick them up personally, but they would try to get them sent to local DMV. Right! Will go into AAA today (where I should have started), report the plates lost, and get another set made. Think it's $10.

Gotta love this shit (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/beerchug.gif)
