Recently, the neighborhood has had problems with raccoons up on the roof tops of the houses and I thought I heard one up in the attic of my house, so this morning I put the boom box and a halogen up in the attic.

I had done this before when a raccoon delivered babies up in the attic and they were gone in a couple hours.

I turned the music up loud enough to be annoying inside the attic, but personally I could barely hear it outside of the house.

After I left for work, my next door neighbor came out and apparently heard the music.

My Dish is mounted to the roof of the garage. Apparently, he thought the music was coming from the dish.

HE CALLED DISH NETWORKS TO REPORT MUSIC COMING FROM MY DISH!!!!!!

I just couldn't believe it. When I heard, I was still driving home, which takes about an hour. About half an hour after getting the call from my wife about the situation, I started laughing so hard that I was crying.

:p

While funny, you could add to the story if it had more of a "rant-ish" tone to it.:D

It's great to see JonnyGURU back and posting again. With any luck this is a precursor to more of the old guard coming back.

Jonny, :beer:

Right. Of the four horsemen of the apocolypse, I'm Shemp Howard.

Don't count on the old guard coming back. ;) I'm pretty sure they're all long gone.

But for some reason, when I have back pain, I feel a certain comfort in ATOT. ;)
