Lies are the grease that keeps the wheels of commerce turning. They are what keep relationships together. They are what keep my neighbors from killing each other. I'm not sure I want to know the truth about anybody. Just walking my dog , I've learned far too much already.
Many neighbors are unfaithful to their spouse, Some are mean-spirited.
And others are simply strange. The day I learned that one peculiar old lady four houses down from me kept her German Shepherd in her freezer for seven years after it died was the day I realized that good neighbors should always remain a mystery.
