The Houston bar owner had trouble with the neighbors in a mid-rise apartment building that opened shortly after his club did. He says they caused trouble for him and other neighbors from the start, with apartment dwellers dropping eggs and water on clubgoers and neighbors. He's closed the business, but he has gotten revenge: He sold the property to someone who's going to build a high rise that'll block their view and drop their property values. He's so giddy about it, he actually spray-painted "HA!!" and "KARMA" on the pavement in view of the offenders. Which is to say, if you don't want something in your neighborhood, be careful what you wish for; you might end up with something far worse. (Houston Chronicle)
