The Neighbor
I was out mowing my lawn, when I finally saw my new neighbor. I had seen the moving truck last week, and had seen lights on in the house, but I hadn't met my neighbor yet. Being so busy with work during the day, and my girlfriend Mia in the evenings, I just hadn't had time yet. But today was Saturday, so here I was doing yard work. He was a big guy, even larger than me. You could tell he worked out. I wasn't scrawny by any means, but this guy was *built*. It made me think of high school football, when I'd get nailed by some big goon like this. That was how I broke my collarbone, and ended my football career before it started. So anyway, I finally saw the guy. He waved hello, so I turned off the mower, an walked over to the driveway where he was standing. "Hi, I'm Ed" I said, extending my hand. "I'm Rob" he replied, shaking hands with me. His hands were big too, and he had one of those too-firm handshakes, where it feels like you...
