Okay…now that you have the hang of how Tackle It Tuesday works, I’ll just jump right in with the topic. This week, it’s a fun one (if a little creepy). Remember, keep your stories to 50 words or less! I know you can do it!
A new neighbor has moved in next door who you are certain was featured on America’s Most Wanted last week.
Go for the tackle! Looking forward to reading your stories!

He jumped the fence
Boarded a boat
Got the heck out of here
Wrote us a letter
Left us to deal with it
We told everyone
His disgusting story
Harsh and violent
Blood thirsty arrogant
Now, in the papers we read
He’s made the list
America’s Most Wanted
“Boy, that lady across the street must have the cleanest hair in the neighborhood. Every time I see her, she appears to have taken, yet, another shower”, Al commented.
Qeeda smirkishly replied, “I’m not one to talk about others, but that woman needs a facial. Bless her heart!”
The call was placed. I smiled satisfied as I heard the scuffle. Then the police led my son’s new English teacher away in handcuffs. Uh oh… best not to mention America’s Most Wanted. How was I to know there was a Piedmont in Texas as well as South Carolina.
I must get a closer look. Gotta be sure before I call the police. Can’t hurt, he’s probably nice, they all are at first.
Knock, knock. Just wanted to welcome you to the neighborhood. No thanks, I won’t come inside…..Aargh…
“Father, I pray You’d put this guy on YOUR “Most Wanted” list, and lead me on how to walk in this. Grant me wisdom. Pray you’d protect me and my family. Pray you’d use me as you choose, for Your purpose, Your Will, and Your glory. In Jesus Name. Amen”
I’m known to be too inquisitive but that’s my nature. I happened to have my binoculars out when I spied my new neighbor. He looked familiar. I know, America’s Most Wanted. What a mistake. He turned out to be a judge and I’m being sued. I threw away my binoculars.
“I know it’s early, but, I was up all night baking these cookies for you. They’re finger print, I mean thumb print! Did I say that? Thumb print cookies. Hahahaha. My grandmother’s old recipe.”
“It’s okay, thanks to America’s Most Wanted we won’t have to bake for a year.”
“He was on ‘America’s Most Wanted’? Hmmm… maybe that means this neighbor will actually know how to be quiet at night, unlike most of the people the landlord allows to move in next door…”
“ Welcome to the neighborhood! ”
“ Uh? ”
“ Want to know somethin’ funny? ”
“ Funny? ”
“ Did you ever see the show, America’s Most Wanted? ”
“ What? ”
“ Well, you could be a dead ringer . . . ”
“ Sarter! You’re under arrest! ”
“ Wow . . . my new neighbor arrested, by my old neighbor. Never saw that comin’ . . . or . . . maybe I did. ”
