My old neighbor, Dennis? He was country AF. He talked really fast, my wife couldn't really understand him half the time. I could, but I really had to pay attention. He kinda reminded me of Boomhauer from King of the Hill.
He always had some outrageous story to tell. Like the time strangers rode up on horseback and shot his dog, or if you have the water pressure to your house turned up past "30 pound PSI" it could potentially blow your water heater through the roof. All kinds of random stories, some tragic, some funny, some informative. He knew a lot about local history too... He ALWAYS had the tool I needed for whatever I was into at the time, and would let me borrow it.
And man did he have a lot of sheds. He had so many sheds that he burned one of them down one day. (To make room?) I think he left most of his junk, i mean stuff, in it...boomers. He loved mowing his lawn too.
He really liked me. I would ask him the appropriate questions and listen intently to whatever crazy chit he was about to tell me. So Jonesy, in short, I liked Dennis. He was a good guy. A very interesting neighbor indeed.
