I don't know that the lizard was @sean92008 's    he lives quite close to a lagoon so perhaps it was just a wild lizard from the.........lagoon!  Like the creature from the black one.

 :D

Well, if I want that little puke to come in my yard and kill something, I'll let him know.

Last year I was in the front yard, and some kid came by and had his dog pee in my yard.  His parents were right behind him, I was out of his line of sight behind some bushes.  I think the first thing I said was ''are you going to wipe that up?'' (deer, headlights), and it went downhill from there.

They best be careful, whatever is left on my yard might end up on their Tesla (yes, I know there's cameras on it... 😈😈😈

I love that you confronted them like that. I believe @Walks_At_Night has dog pee problems on the front grass as well.

I have never had that problem because I've always had a front fence but a few years ago I had to make it a tall privacy fence that surrounds the entire yard (almost 90 panels) as kids were jumping over the low fence and making off with things in the night. I even caught some in the hot tub when I came home from a gig one Friday night about 1:45 am.

This picture is a corner of the front. The sidewalk is directly on the other side. No dog pee. No kids. No nothing. And now that Vera has the complete run of front, back and both sides no-one dare come in anyway but the tall fence really helps. A lot!

@KSM

My pee and poo problem is pretty much solved. Had to holler at a couple of guys and put up some of those "No Dog Shit Allowed Here" signs. You had some lawless bastards just hopping in your hot tub while you were out?  Unbelievable..........

LOL  Had to holler! I like it!

Yes, a group of neighborhood kids in 2014 just after we got the tub. They weren't vandalizing or even being loud in there, more like just chillin', but still. You're right - unbelievable..

..Fast forward three weeks and we spent more on fencing than the price of the J-455 simply because of the tub itself.  At least I can pee almost  anywhere in the yard now without being reported.   ;D

Growing up, I frequently heard stories of the neighborhood kids inviting themselves to my family's pool. Different times, but still not appreciated.

We also had red cross swimming lessons at the pool.  That shit will get your homeowners insurance cancelled nowadays...

Toyota seems to be the only auto maker living in the real world.

Finally!   Estimated 30 minutes to remove old tv from wall mount and install the new tv.  It took just under 20 minutes.

I can't recall the last time I did a "do it yourself" project that went well for me.  I've done them in the past with success but recently it seems I'm now an idiot that can't even measure.

Another poorly thought out "solution" whose unintended consequences damage the planet they're trying to save even worse.

The same goes for cars, electricity production, oil production, etc...

Was it still to short after you cut it the second time?

And here you were blaming those yard stains on poor Vera...
Time spent with cats is never wasted.

In my entire life I've never had a good experience with anyone named Kevin.  Not one.  Whether it was a classmate, coworker, boss, neighbor, teammate, or someone I encountered in a store such as a cashier, etc.
