Spaw and Rick..how dare you leave out the most crusty egotistical prick of all. ME!! I have never started a row in my life, but, I take great joy in counter punching. Some years ago I lived out in the country, and here in Maine, many deeds say 69 acres, more or less. Land is so cheap here, we dont worry over a few feet either way. But, the old man who owned the adjoining property sold out, and a couple from N.J. bought it. First thing they did was have it surveyed. They came to me and said "Our surveyor says that our common boundry line runs right through the middle of your well. What do you propose to do about it.? I couldn't think of a reasonable answer to an unreasonable question, so, I just said "I dont know what you want to do with your half, I'll probably keep drowning cats in mine." To date, they have shown no interest in sharing that water.
