I am so ANGRY!!!!

[LlindeX]

We had a new kid move into the neighborhood and soon after, the tagging began. One of my neighbors had his truck parked out front and sure nuf, the kid tagged it. Neighbor was so mad, he didn't care if he didn't have proof the kid did it. He went roaring down to the kid's parent's place, knocked on the door and demanded to talk to the "Ole Man" about what his kid had done. When he did, to his surprise, the "Ole Man" said my son't not home, why don't you do the same to his car? He even went out in the garage and got the guy a can of spray paint and accompanied him to the drive where the kid had parked his low rider. After my neighbor returned the favor to the kid, he and the Dad had a good laugh and said their goodbyes. Funny thing, it took the kid about three weeks to get the black paint off his baby blue metallic paint job & we haven't had a taggin' in the area since. Guess the Dad knew what his boy treasured most, and figured letting my neighbor get it out of his sytem might just save some legal hassles while teaching the boy a lesson. My neighbor and I still have a good laugh about it every time we see the kid go by in his car. He's actually turned into a pretty decent guy. Even helps the old lady down the street with her lawn.
