Just a Few More Inches
My neighbor just had his front yard re-landscaped, last year.
Generally speaking it looks pretty nice, but there is one bush that was planted near the corner of his lot, which is, also, near the entrance, or exit, of my driveway.
This plant is only a problem in that it partially blocks the view for anyone who is trying to pull their vehicle out of my driveway.
During this winter, which had record breaking snowfalls, this blind spot was, also, a temporary problem as I inconspicuously put most of the shovel loads of snow from my driveway on this particular spot. Just kidding; I would never do that.
As it turns out, a new solution to this problem has presented itself.
The horrific earthquake in Chile, apparently has had worldwide consequences. Of particular note, is the fact that the Earth has shifted its figure axis by about three inches.
Now, I could explain what this means, but you would not understand, because nobody understands what it means.
Nonetheless, to simplify the meaning, I will state very basically that it means that my property line has shifted by 3 inches onto my neighbors newly landscaped front yard.
By my calculations, it will only take about three more good sized earthquakes before this annoying plant is completely on my property. This, of course, will provide me with the opportunity to remove the bush, which would then be my bush.
Alternatively, I suppose that I could work with my neighbor to relocate the bush, but what fun would that be.
