Damn home owners associations and covenants telling people how to live.

I left Reston Virginia because they complained that I did not mow my grass for a month, that the color of my panels was the wrong shade and that I had tan curtains rather than white. Add that there was a 10% increase in dues every half year.

Of course this HOA did nothing for the rapes or muggings in the community, neither did they help those who found themselves unemployed and had to execute creative measures to make ends meet - such as repairing cars.

Meddling busybodies, hope they lost their buts with the sub prime markets and hope that they run into another busybody that gets upset because they missed something as a result of the economy.

Now, when your weapons are dulled, your ardor damped, your strength exhausted and your treasure spent, other chieftains will spring up to take advantage of your extremity. Then no man, however wise, will be able to avert the consequences that must ensue.
