A comforting idea, and being a Southerner I agree with your opinion of him,
but thinking to avoid retaliation from the law or anyone else for such a
course of action, why don't you consider investing the "surplus funds" in
something - anything - that will reward you with regular dividends or
profits, which upon receiving you can rejoice in the knowledge that the
windfall - of whatever size - came from the $$ your sneaky, miserable
neighbor saved you altogether by his attemped trickery? Don't you think that
might be far more rewarding?

: To review, I made a plea for help in dealing with a #%^!+=/~! animal

: Jack,

mulberry
: trees. I understand and sympathize with the motivation behind this

: However, this will be more than a "gift" to the neighbor who took such
: cruel
: action against the feral cats. You would also be taking vengeance
against

: OK, point to you, Mary ;-) I'll forego getting the Southern (white)
: Mulberry and you're right; it really is a nasty plant, as I discovered in
my

however,
: is a delight to all birdkind and a bit messy for only a short time. They
: are not at all uncommon in yards about these parts, so planting a couple
of

: Cheers,

: PS-- I'll have surpluss funds, after I buy the new place. Can I use it to
: have this SUMBITCH beaten to a bloody pulp?????
