Dear Neighbor,

I'm writing to you with regards to your rudeness this morning
Your ignorance amuse me

First Issue- My Dog

Yes firstly, My dog Nicky did pee and shit near your house
I stress the fact near because obviously he didn't shit and pee IN your house
If that were the case I'll admit that we're wrong
However we walked the dog at the side of the house which you NEVER used
I never see you doing anything on that side of the OUTSIDE of your house
What makes your house so special that I can't walk my dog near it?
If I have to walk my dog inside the compound of my house
That will obviously defeat the purpose of "walking the dog"

Now I understand that you are a little (or should I say very?) upset that:
a) My dog shit outside the side of your house
b) Pee at the outside of the side of your house


Personally I don't see a problem with that
Dog urine and stool is a biodegradable "thing"
Its not like I am throwing nuclear waste outside your house
It is an effective fertilizer for your trees and plants which you NEVER
And I stress NEVER do anything with
How else is it growing strong and tall?
I never see you water it

And the fact that we did not in anyway TRESPASS your land
We were merely walking outside
Your land constitute the area ABOVE and BELOW your property
We were OUTSIDE
IF I were to use your "warped" logic and understanding
Then you had earlier TRESPASSED on my land by just driving past it

Besides that, the reason why I was pissed..
Is your rudeness towards your fellow neighbors
How can you honk and scold us when we didn't do anything wrong
I believe you owe us an apology
If you are determined to get back at us
Go get a dog and make it pee around our area
However you have to be careful because if it does it's business on our gate
You're obviously trespassing on our property
(Something that we did not do)

If you are so unhappy that we walked our dog near our area
Why not get a condo unit and live there?
Solves all problems
Too small? No problem, get a penthouse
This is none of our concern

You want to bring a legal action against us?
By all means, but let me forewarn you that your loss is imminent if you do so
I don't think we violated any of your rights
Instead you're the one who violated ours when you disallow us to walk our dogs
Where is the freedom of movement?

Furthermore,
You should thank God that we did not let our dog run free like most owners do around here
I believe that it would be piece of cake for my dog to maul you to death
However, what we did as an owner of our pet was pretty responsible
We walked our dog, WITH A LEASH!
We control our dog to do its business at the bushes and grasses so that it will degrade easily
You wont like it either if we were to make it poo on the road outside your house right?
Think about it for a second
What we did wasn't unreasonable
Furthermore we did not in any way cause property damage to your house
Instead we made sure the trees grew tall and strong to provide your house a nice shade

You say that the dog shit stinks?
PROVE IT!
Don't accuse... prove it that it stinks
Like I said, dog poo is degradable
Within a day or so, with rain it degrades into the soil
Even if there is no rain, the sun dries it up leaving no stench

2nd Issue- Your rudeness

Was it that hard to wind down your window and inquire us about our actions?
No you simply just did not allow us to explain ourselves
Wow, as if we had a vendetta against you and force the dog to relieve itself on your tree
You need to broaden your thinking
Hey like I said, wanna get back at us?
Go rare a pet dog then
But you chose to Honk in a very demeaning manner
What a typical Chinese old man you are
All grouchy and acting as if the world owes you big time


Or if you just don't like to live in a community
Go get a penthouse or a condo unit
If you want we can discuss this like a gentleman
Come and talk to us if you like
I believe we can sort out our differences

Just because my dad did not say anything
Does not mean we condone your actions
Yes surprised?
I'm the son of the man you scolded this afternoon (06/02/2010)
Unbelievable that I gave this more thought than you right?
You should be ashamed of yourself uncle
That a 20 year old kid turning 21 can have a broader view than you

I do hope you will see us to resolve this issue
If not, then might I suggest that you read through my writing
Think about it
Reason with yourself
Think with your head, Not your heart.


Regards

Josiah Lim
