He Threw His Arms Up In Despair

A homeowner near Wilmington, NC, is unhappy with road crews trimming back brush from the roadside.

immie Spivey, who lives on Creekside Lane, watched DOT workers cut back part of his wax myrtles.

“I threw my arms up in despair,” he said. “Those wax myrtles gave me privacy.”

Spivey, who is president of the Creekside Homeowners Association, said there were areas that needed trimming, but some feel the DOT went too far.

“They changed the character of the neighborhood,” Spivey said.


I laughed because the sentiment was so over the top. I'll have to use that myself at work when I'm frustrated.
