The alley

• Then & Now - Historica...
With my Flip cam handy, I decided to video tape the last 2 minutes of the loud argument I had been witnessing below my home office window between a couple who were most likely intoxicated and / or under the influence as they walked through the alley adjacent to my building. "Dumpster diving" to recycle items is a common practice in my coastal community and occasionally seeing disruptive behavior is the downside to living toward the back of my building in the Alamitos Beach area of Long Beach, California.

Thanks pnk! That's a good idea ... I'll keep my flip camera handy - right on top of my desk which is right at that very window overlooking the alley and dumpster. Whenever I'm at my PC, I can keep a look-out for any possible candidates for my you-tube videos! I can call the series "Raucous in the alley" or some-thin like that! :)

Yes pnk, she couldn't pick up her, as she says, sh*t .... cause the cops were comin! My neighbor next door was on the phone with the police as this woman was raising ruckus! This went on for about 15 minutes and only regret I didn't video more of it! Lol.......

Lol..Guess it doesnt matter how much you try to live in a nice neighborhood or How much the rent cost...the way the world is today everywhere is the ghetto in some type of way.

I feel for you. It’s unfortunate that most of us don’t get to choose our neighbors. Stay safe.
