Is this the same party that you've complained about in the past with extremely cheap guests? The woman who brought two bottles of wine, one cheap, one dirt cheap, and then asked to take home the marginally better of the two?

The Google maps image was last updated sometime after 4/2010, as that is when the trees in the back were cut down. The photos were taken very close to that time.

You cut the trees down from the front of the house too, didn't you?

I saw a huge dirt pile in the corner of your yard, what's that from?

BAHAHA. My cousin's friend uploaded five videos from this summer. I can't watch them now, my Flash player is out of date here, but at least two of them are entitled "Loving Cousins", which I remember was the largest male cousin trying to drag/carry our slightly younger female cousin down to the lake and toss her in.

It didn't end well, as she was quite determined not to go, there were about fifty feet of steep stone steps ahead, and he had a torn or damaged MCL in his knee. So she didn't end up in the lake.

That's where 3 trees were cut down by the utility. That's why I know when the photo was taken -- the utility cut them down in 4/2010 and that showed up on Google Maps REALLY fast. One huge maple and IIRC, an elm and tulip. We were really sad to see them go. We've replaced them with other plants/trees, though.

The trees are still in the front. We cut down a redbud that was in the front yard shortly after we moved in because it was dying. It was a shame too because it was really pretty when it bloomed. We planted a redbud in the back to replace it.

""When I bought the team I said that there's no way I could make the kind of commitment that I'm making to buy the team ... and not have the final say relative to the kinds of things that general managers decide," Jones said. "So, I don't see that at all. What I do see is a better straight line way of making decisions and that has born out over the years. Now we need to win a Super Bowl.""

lol @ Jerry Jones.

C'mon dude, your team has sucked ass for 16 years, you've changed all the players out, multiple coaches... wonder what the problem could be...

That utility company made a bloody mess of your yard. I'd be pissed if I were you.

Streetview from directly in front of your house just shows a wall of giant trees, I had to move down the street a bit to actually see the building.

Damn, Logan Mankins is out next week with a sprained MCL. Good news is, Pats have a first-round bye (not that we've used that well in the past), so he'll have a few weeks to rest now.

Zoom out and look at the houses along the same north/south line as mine. They fucked up a lot of yards and our HOA went after them for messing up.

Yes, I know. My wife wants to cut one or more down and I won't allow her to because they provide lots of shade in the summer.

Did anything actually happen because of that?? Around here the power company pretty much has free reign to trim to protect the lines. Secondary damage in getting to and fro said lines: they are subject to damage claims.

Huh, guess an HOA can do something useful.

I'm with you, keep the trees. They also offer a little privacy from the road.
