The only recourse is to get at least two complainers that are willing to set a court date and appear etc. etc....
I think I'm ready to move to some farmhouse or something like you....got an extra bedroom?

Out microwave broke yesterday, we're pretty sure it is the door latches being too loose or worn or something like that. We've only had it for about 3 years and paid about $100 for it. I'm sure we can get it fixed but it will probably cost us $40 - $50 to do it. Why do that when we can spend an extra $30 or $40 and get a brand new one?
The last microwave we had before this one lasted well over 10 years, I paid about $200 for it and had fuzes replaced in it once for about $30.
I'm sure part of this is that I get what I pay for but it still ticks me off! About the only positive spin on it is that we were looking to get an over the stove one anyway so now we have an excuse.

I suppose you don't want to know about my 20y.o. microwave?

I have some experience in neighborhood disputes. My diplomacy skills are without equal and my success rate is 100%. I have no equal in serial urban renewal. My fees are reasonable.

bagpipe music is VERY effective. my daughter and I used to do Scottish dancing at the games so obviously we would practice at home. I have one CD that breaks it down into the steps and you can go over and over with really loud pipe music....
