All good advice. Let it go. It's only going to go downhill and if you're not careful you will go with it.

How true that is, when you are young you think you have the best friends in the world, but as you grow older and learn, they are just your buddies. My grandfather told me 30 years ago if you can reach his age(75-80at that time)and fill one hand with "true" friends(5) you have accomplished something in life! He had not accomplished it at that time and neither have I at this time. I often think about that statement and wonder how many people actually accomplish this in their lifetime.

Do you love things and use people or love people and use things?

Why are you giving this guy space in your head...?
I have always liked this saying.....
If you lend someone $20 and you never see them again it was worth it....
If you see him, wave and smile. It'll bug the ever-livin' **** out of him...
Let it go. It's only going to go downhill and if you're not careful you will go with it.
The quotes above represent very well my opinion on the matter, and also the way it should be dealt with.

While I can understand the feelings of sandrat, 1234567890 and others who are more inclined to deal with the matter in a, shall we say "proactive" manner , I do not necessarily believe that is the best way to deal with your neighbors.

You're going to have to do your best to ignore this guy.

Let him talk s***. It lets everyone know what he's made of. If he affects someone else's opinion of you, then write them off as well.

This guy is not worth your time.

"Never argue with an idiot. He will just pull you down to his level and then beat you with experiance."

Black's right just ignore this guy. The more he shows his butt and the more cool you are the more people will see what you are made of and how this guy is just a jerk.

He runs a business? 2 places to call: the IRS, and OSHA.

Maybe throw in the Board of Labor for good measure.

Remember: don't get mad...it wastes energy. Get even.

I've lost 9 friends in the last 4 years.

4 from a young Deaths & 4 others from being control freaks.

With the other one, one day he decidied he was going re-structure his life and Michelle & I weren't going to be a part of it



With one them.... I didn't like being talked to, like I was a child.
I also didn't like being told that *I will be doing this* & *saying that and a pre-determined time*,That *I will sitting here* and *don't go there*& *telling her this*& *telling him that*.

I really miss my friends that died..a lot
