Firstly, she is NOT my Mum, we are NOT related at all, she is Evangelidiots mother.
Evangelidiot was EXPELLED from from the area of Australia were the rest of his family live to my neighb ourhood some 1,000 kilometres away because, according to his mother, "He is a very disruptive, trouble-making person who disturbs the peace and quiet of the rest of our family."
I suppose, given that she is LOADED with money as she INSISTED upon informing me, she found it easier to bundle him off to points distant by purchasing him a house, which also got him off the streets where he chose to live btw, and thus dump her problem into the laps of innocent and unaware others.

@Triphid - My apologies. I meant no offense in my misunderstanding. It makes it the worse that neither the mother nor the son is related to you. He was, as you say, dumped on you.

Well,I was watching the tv broadcast of the NYE Celebrations in Sydney, some 1,000 kilometres east of here, there were also NYE celebrations happening around the town where I live which included the Annual Fireworks displays, 1 display at 9.00pm for the little children who need to be in bed early and then the midnight display of course which in the last 10 years has been preceded by the "Boomers" ( a device designed and built by a local Engineer and Engineering Firm that fires off at regularly times intervals of 30 minutes from 9.00pm until Midnight). Evangelidiot has been here now for 10 years and the fireworks display has been an Annual event now for at least the last 30+ years, the "Boomers" were introduced to the Annual Display for the NYE Celebrations of the year 2,000.
Though I will admit, they are quite loud and even thunderous considering that they are 'fired' from a very prominent and very high point in almost the centre of the town so their noise spreads around very quickly and loudly as well.

Why, I am no Arsonist/Fire-bug?
Besides, I've got about 4.5 litres of it stored away for my lawn-mower and my chainsaws.

@Triphid Perhaps the loon will avoid contact having made this mistake. Did he apologize at all? I'm sorry you have such a problem and wish you a better new year. (I was only kidding about the gasoline).

Normal ???? We much preferred it to 'abnormal' thank you.

Imo, more money than sense, I'd have left there for the full time EVEN with a fellow prisoner named " Trunk" making 'overtures towards him.

@Triphid Yes, I'm sure her money could be put to much better use than bailing him out every 5 minutes.

@Lilac-JadeCanada EDUCATING him would serve a very good purpose imo.

@Triphid Yes, but he appears too dim to learn.
