In a previous townhouse experience, the folks next door were apparently comprised of possibly the same woman you described, a shirtless, cut-off jean wearing guy with a mullett, and several barely legal, fairly loose-looking women that I'm conviinced were living there to get lessons from the older broad.

They're fricken crazy. They have a deck that we can see from our front room. They always have friends over for bbq and beers : Very entertaining.

Where we live now is quite boring, but in our former home we had a family of 8 one one side (eight girls, two parents) and a rotating cast of losers on the other side.
