Suebob's Red Stapler

11 May 2006

To my neighbor who got the rooster: I would like to meet you. And not in a "Hi neighbor, I brought over a plate of cookies" kind of way, either.

Please, God, make it stop. I know I said I was an early riser, but 3:45?? Too early.

Now I know this may seem ridiculous to say to you right now but we got used to it and after a while we liked it. Is it literally right next door?; 6:00 AM

I think it is on the street adjacent.; 6:30 AM

Oh boy, I can relate. I live next to a pseudo-farm and they have two roosters! Agh!
There's also some freakin loud goats, sheep and geese. I'm glad to say after 5 years, I've finally adjusted to the racket.; 9:42 AM
Anonymous said...: WTH? Aren't there any city ordinances against raising livestock? I hate my neighbor enough, I can't imagine if he got roosters.; 10:48 AM
noncommon said...: are you serious? a real rooster? oh, you have my deepest sympathies. why don't you make signs? maybe the poor thing was dropped off and everybody is wondering the same thing as you. that's just too damn hokey.; 12:33 PM
Chicky Chicky Baby said...: Mmmmm... tastes like chicken. With a side of buckshot. Go ahead. Shoot it. We won't tell. :); 7:19 PM
tracey clark said...: OMG, that reminds me of when I was in newborn-hell and I would be up at all hours nursing and I'd always know it was ALMOST morning when I'd hear the roosters from our local school's farm, oh , and the newspaper delivery guy. Oh, the horror.; 8:52 PM
SUEB0B said...: Even though I live in a heavily populated urban area, there are a zillion roosters around here. I figure there is a cockfighting subculture. (I'm not joking). I just wasn't lucky enough to have one near my house until last week.

I'm a veg, so no chicken/rooster dinner for me. Maybe Goldie, though...she loves to hunt!; 9:02 PM
super des said...: if some "accident" should come early in the morning, I'm sure you could find a nice homeless person that would eat a certain rooster.; 9:25 AM
Bamboo Lemur Boys Are Mean To Their Girls said...: des- LOL.
All of you advocating the murder and consumption of mr. rooster should be ashamed.
Sue, all he needs is a fed up, late night neighbor to relocate him to Ojai. Know anyone?; 3:27 PM
