HEY NEIGHBOR, THAT ISN’T FUNNY!

OK, it’s kind of funny.

But I watched my next-door neighbor slide off his ladder one year while putting up lights. So I can imagine the reaction of passers-by.

Here’s the note that accompanied this photo, which is making the rounds via e-mail:

“Good news is that I truly out did myself this year with my Christmas  decorations. The bad news is that I had to take him down after 2 days. I had more people come screaming up to my house than ever.Great stories. But two things made me take it down. 

First, the cops advised me that it would cause traffic accidents as they almost wrecked when they drove by. 

Second, a 55 year old lady grabbed the 75 pound ladder almost killed herself putting it against my house and didn’t realize it was fake until she climbed to the top (she was not happy). By the way, she was one of many people who attempted to do that. My yard couldn’t take it either. I have more than a few tire tracks where people literally drove up my yard.”
