Revenge

I am fortunate to have mostly very nice neighbors.

My Dad, however, used to like to charge up a small capacitor, then leave it laying around on the table with its connecting wire hanging free. I of course picked it up to fiddle with, and ZAP! Those things will light you up!

Super glue is fun and birdseed is great for lawns.

When I was in the auto game we used to throw them to other mechs & yell out "Catch" :roflmao

We had a Marine in Navy Electronics school, yea these many years ago, that would plug-in any cord he found layin' on the bench. Well a military DC electrolytic bathtub capacitor don't take at all well to that AC voltage treatment. Stink...oh yes! Had class outside that day..in the rain! Instructor thought it was a hoot but he was under the eaves! Only so many days to fill our heads with info.

Way back in juniour high, we used to put (you probably know better than I ) what I think were capacitors,in the gang outlets in electric shop, and when the teacher turned them on they would go off like .22s,really loud and well worth the punishment.......

1. Why not subscribe to any and all spam/junk mail subscriptions under his name and address?
2. If you have no fence between you, consider a "spite fence"... a few wooden stakes and roll of string is all it takes to clearly define your relationship.
3. Throwing handfuls of salt in his lawn will ensure that YOURS is the best looking one on the block (also, you can write your name, a message or just doodle with it). The effects only last as long as the ground remains untilled.
4. Repeat #1 above, though substitute "mail" for "telemarketing".
5. Set appointments with every plumber, electrician, painter, landscaper and flooring guy in town. At the same time. On the same day.
6. Sneak over at night and unscrew all of the light bulbs on their house just enough so they won't light.
7. Get creative!

This Public Service Announcement brought to you by the letter "R"...
