Neon Lights for Noisy Neighbors

I personally love when the weather allows us to have the windows open.  Fresh air and the sound of birds chirping keep the house homey.  Sadly, with such pleasure comes the down side.  For me, at my house, it's the neighbors.

They moved in about 6 years ago.  What I first noticed about them -- and thought I admired -- was that they had Boxers.  I love Boxers because they are friendly and quiet.  However, upon closer inspection I noticed that these Boxers were fat.  Boxers need to maintain their shape because they are prone to hip problems.  Needless to say, I had concerns about my neighbors then.  When I met them at a neighborhood party, I was even more unimpressed.  They are natives of Stony Point.  Now, Stony Point seems, on the surface to be a nice place.  But talk to people who live there -- even those who've lived there since birth -- and a dirty secret is revealed.  They're hillbillies.  So, lucky me, I have hillbillies for neighbors.

It didn't take long to realize that that was the least of my problems with my neighbors.  They're loud too.  Trust me, I know loud.  And the language!  I know I can sound like a trucker, but I try not to announce it to the world.  This summer I was especially cognizant of the language because it starts so early in the morning (and we've had the windows open).  For some reason they carry on business via phone from their back deck.  And judging from the conversations I can't help but to hear, they do not speak nicely to anyone.  

So, this morning I couldn't help but overhear the neighbor (there's a father and son team) carry on his business.  Whoever he was talking to got his hair up.  I heard, "What shit?" at least six times with no time for an answer.  Then a couple F words and yelling.  Jeez!  I can't begin to number the times I've wanted to shout across the stream, "Shut up".  This morning was no different.  Then, I began daydreaming about how I could change the neighbors' behavior.  I could install a neon billboard on the back of my bungalow (which faces the neighbors) and type what they're saying.  I could be a light up reminder of their behavior without becoming a bother to other neighbors.  I suspect if I could throw in their faces what I hear every day it would change their behavior (or be annoying which would be just as satisfying).
