My neighbor
I live next door to a couple who are a bit older than I am, probably in their late 50s. Apparently the guy used to own one of the very first actual nightclubs in town and is something of a legend in this regard, from what I'm told by some of the locals about my age.

However, the guy's creepy as hell.

Most days if I go into my back yard, he's either outside or emerges shortly after me. He seems to spend all of his time drinking Busch Light and hanging out with his Dalmation, and is always either talking to the dog or whistling. He makes constant noise of some variety when he's out there. My daughter says that she's come downstairs in the wee hours of the morning to get something to drink and has heard him whistling. I've heard him do it well after midnight.

He's always watching us as well. He's about my height and about twice my weight, always wears tinted aviator glasses, and will actually come around the corner of his house to watch me unload my groceries. One night he was backlit as he did so, and I swear he looked like Jason Voorhees.

His speech is always slurred, and he has a bit of a salivation problem- his lips are always wet and slack. He once admitted that on the days he works he drinks a case of beer a day, and on his days off it's twice that.

I liked the way my friend Rob put it one day- "There's something of a tool about that man."

Last night he was sitting at the end of his driveway handing out candy. He didn't do any decorating that I could see.

I think his was the scariest house on the block.

(BTW- this is the guy that I intend to build the infrasound generator for.)
