And people wonder why I want acres of land between me and my neighbors. It doesn’t matter how nice of a neighborhood you live in because Ozzy Osbourne or PDiddy can always move next door.

You can pick your friends but you can’t pick your neighbors but you can keep them at a distance.

Too right, friend, my wife doens’t understand why I’m willing to commute an hour to get four, five acres of land for our home. The only thing I want to hear from a neighbor is his rooster crowing.

.....my wife and I have lived on 24 acres since 1993...our county is 97% white....we have low crime, low taxes, good schools, honest government and a good hospital that’s solvent...we are the people that Saturday Night Live makes fun of.

Our family bought 100 acres and split it three ways just so we have a buffer from whoever moves in near us. I will never willingly sell the peace and quiet I have for no amount of gold.
