Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
I would not last one minute in a home association……..
1HOAs— Because we don’t have enough Rules and laws already.
2Any bets that the HOA nanny is one of those snacilbupeR alleged ‘small govt’ guys? He probably sniffs mattresses on Neighborhood Watch, too.
3Remember BTK was a neighborhood nanny, too.
Not to say HOAs are run by sadistic serial killers, by the way.
4HOA’s. The last refuge of sniveling tyrants. My daughter and her family are stuck with one although by law the HOA was defunct some time ago. This hive of jive made everyone in the development paint their wooden fences the color s**t. No exceptions! I assured my daughter that the sunlight would fade the color down to a shade of gastric acid. She can’t wait to get herself and her family out of there!
5LOL … Love those signs, too!! Someone is foaming at the mouth over those!! LOL
6Ahhhh, the HOA – America’s lowest form of government, and a vivid demonstration of how farming out the job to for profit enterprises really works.
7HOAs. The last worst place for those who couldn’t get elected to the august post of dog poop collector. As for the signs, I say our fearless homeowner is within the guidelines. Upon close inspection, I only see one candidate per sign so perhaps thr very tight assed hoa rep needs to get his/her eyes examined.
8We’ve been very careful to only purchase in neighborhoods w/o an HOA. I hate them.
There was a great episode of The X-Files back in the 90s where the HOA had summoned up a monster to attack tacky neighbors.
9@Proud TX Liberal, you beat me to it! I LOVED that episode!
I live in a townhouse community with an HOA. Never again. What a bunch of Nazi’s!
Here is the link to the X-Files episode on IMDB:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0751076/
The HOA wouldn’t let Mulder put a B-Ball hoop in the front yard and he and Scully were posing as Rob & Laura Petrie (which Scully couldn’t pronounce correctly). Very funny!
10HOAs. Ohferpete’ssake. On the other hand, Great Signs!!
11Words to live by:
“If it doesn’t move – and it should – use WD40.
If it moves – and it shouldn’t – use duct tape.”
And if you want to show A WHOLE LOT OF SUPPORT for your candidate — why — MORE duct tape. Of course.
I just love ingenuity.

As to the dreaded HOA: I lived in one once. Then I took in a cat that had been dumped in the neighborhood. He had been on his way to becoming feral and I did them a service by taking him in.
So the office tried to give me a hard time when I let him go outside. HE HAD BEEN LIVING BY THE POOL FOR A MONTH, FERGOSHSAKES! He was telling me he was bored out of his mind and I wasn’t going to force him to live as an indoor cat after that.
So we moved. And, while I can’t speak for him — oh, hell, yes I can — we’re both much happier.
Not to mention the fact that the neighborhood was smack-dab in the middle of Tea Pot, Florida. He just helped get me off the dime and out of there. Thank you, Jake.
12JJ: Putting the Meow in hoMEOWners (because the cat is the hero of the internet and it’s videos)
Homeowners Association: Forever putting the A** in Association
13Must not have been in Richardson, where a Hillary sign got a family’s dog poisoned and their car destroyed.
14Pictures of similar “violations” around the neighborhood are often used in cases like this. Point out selective enforcement of HOA covenants!
Other tactics:
15– “Yard art” which happens to have candidate’s name on it
– Park car in driveway, open trunk, prop sign up inside trunk to fact the street
I would invoke my First Amendment rights and remind the HOA there is a second one, too.
16@Malarkey. Yes! That X-Files immediately came to mind.
And, chipped paint on a chimney? Way to crazy for me.
17Thanks Juanita Jean! I love sticking it to a Homeowners Association that is run by a bunch of Ken Paxton loving, Tea-Party affiliated nincumpoops.
18Remind me again… what was reason #5,108?
19Chipped paint on a chimney? Seriously? Who the hell has eye sight so good they can spot a chip way up on a chimney? If the stuff was peeling off, I could buy that c**p, but a chip? Only if some HOA nazi took a BB gun and created said chip! Wouldn’t put it past them!
20I ordered my Hillary/Kaine yard sign 2 weeks ago, but once I put it up, I’m going to have to guard it from the rwnj’s around here. It will be the only Hillary sign in the ‘hood, just as mine was the only Obama sign last election. For some reason they left that alone. Think I’ll place doggy do all around it and super glue it to the tree.
21I loathe HOAs. I refer to them as Prissypants. Yes, the R is in there on purpose.
22Our co-op’s HOA has a yard inspection every spring. Our theory is that the purpose of the yard inspection is to get neighbors out and talking with each other… about how much they hate the yard inspection.
