That will teach them

HERE is the full story


Juan Mata's maroon Kenworth semi-truck means a lot to him. The Lockport man keeps a picture of it tucked inside his wallet. He used to proudly park the truck in the driveway outside his home.

So, when his neighbors called police last summer, complaining that the truck was noisy and an eyesore and the police made him move it, Mata, who says none of that's true, got mad.

Then, he got even: He has painted his house a brilliant shade of fluorescent green.

Just another reason for living out in the sticks on 12 acres, I bring my 03 Pete, x-hood home anytime I want. Used to live in the city and got complaints from 1 old bitty. She made the mistake of getting in my trk to leave a note and called police. Had a $20 bill in ashtray that became "missing", advised police when they came out to visit. Last time I heard from her!

That's one of the funniest and most brilliant things I've read in a long time. Bet they didn't see that coming. I wonder if he puts on a Grizwald family Christmas display to irk them in the winter.
