Lindsay and I were heading out of our apartment last night when a visitor walked right past us and over to our neighbor’s door. Since it was the obvious thing to do, we both gave him the subtle once-over as he stood in the hall. A few moments later, he disappeared inside the next-door apartment.

Lindsay: “Well, he wasn’t too bad. He didn’t seem thuggy. Did you see how politely he knocked on the door?”

Me: “Yes, I was very favorably impressed by the way he refrained from yelling and smashing the door down. Also, I liked the fact that he wasn’t packing a gun. Not to mention that he didn’t curse. These things make me feel very good about his character. Clearly, this is a good guy…”

Lindsay: “Oh, stop it, Honey.”

I guess you could say the tension between us and our next door neighbors has lessened slightly since we wrote ‘em up.

A little social activism works wonders.
