Is there some sort of rule that everybody has to like everybody here? If somebody doesn't wave, or give you a big smile you have to make cookies, or a nice cake or something? How about handing him an envelope full of cash?
If he's throwing stuff on your lawn, bad-mouthing you around the neighborhood, or peeking in your window... you have a problem. Otherwise...

I have nice neighbors on both sides, across the street, and up and down the block. The guy directly across... not so much. Am I concerned? Nope... who cares? Did you like everybody at school, at work, everywhere?

On TOTV a while back a lady was upset that when riding her golf cart she waved to 75 other carts and only a few waved back... Give me a break.

WALT!

Hey!

I am sitting in a McDonald's in Cincinnati. I am between appointments this morning, and I just stopped here to wolf down an Egg McMuffin. (i know they are not good for me, but I like 'em.) BUT, you, sir, just made me snort coffee out my nose and I just missed getting it all over my iPad.

Then I looked at where you are from, and I just gotta tellya I have never met a New Yorker that I did not like. Seriously. I mean that. In fact, if I ever get to TV from Ohio, I intend to try to sneak into one of the clubs with the New Yorkers. You New Yorkers tell it true. And with terrific humor. I must start practicing now so I can get the accent down.

Now, please send that envelope full of cash to me at my home address:
