Neighborhood Nuisance

by | 20 Dec 2022

It was about 9:30pm on Saturday 17 December 2022, someone knocked our door hard – first I thought it was an Amazon delivery guy but didn’t see anyone or nothing was left on our doorstep. We checked the footage from our security camera and saw someone was running away after knocking our door. I didn’t think he would come back second time. Two minutes after the first knock he did the same thing again and scared my little baby. I opened the front door, kept the glass/storm door locked, turned the outside lights on and inside lights off, waited in the dark for a while and later went outside to check around our house. Couldn’t find anyone, so checked the footage from the back security camera and there he was. Speedy John came back about six minutes later, looked directly at the back camera, and realized he was photographed, so he just left.

About three months ago someone entered my car and checked everywhere. He took few dollars that I kept for donating and scattered all my documents on the floor of the car but didn’t take anything else. I am still not sure how he opened the car door, so I concluded I might have left the car door unlocked by mistake. After this Saturday’s incident I am thinking this can be the same guy who goes around annoying people and checks cars to see if they are unlocked. Anyway, next time I will contact the police.

Obnoxious Driver

Around noon on Saturday 13 July 2019 I was driving towards Queens, NYC on Brooklyn Queens Expressway (BQE) and little before exit 23 (still in Brooklyn) I was trying to go to the right lane but a car came too fast and too close to mine in the right lane, so I went...

Verizon Sucks

After having it for more than three years I had to cancel my Verizon Internet (FIOS) service on 09 September 2017. When I was cancelling I mentioned that bill close date was 06 September, so can I be excused for the last two days but she said no and I would be paying...

ভুল

ভুল বিশ্বাসঘাতকের মুখ দেখতে কেমন হয় আমি ঠিক জানি না কিন্তু কেন যেন মনে হয় দেখতে সুন্দরই হয়। এরা মিষ্টি মিষ্টি কথা বলে আবার মাঝে মাঝে বলে "আমি মিথ্যা বলি না"। বার বছর একসঙ্গে থাকলেও এদের চেনা যায় না আমার তো মনে হয় বারশ বছরেও চেনা যাবে না যদি না এরা নিজেদের স্বরূপ...

Kurbani

This was the first year when I went to butcher shops for Kurbani of Eid-ul-Azha (Annual religious sacrifice). We deposited $500 to a butcher shop in Pipersville, PA to get a bull of around 1800lbs. That was a Thursday and he told our organizer that he only had big...

In Loving Memory of Michael Brown: A Neighbor’s Unforgettable Smile

I was shocked to hear that our neighbor, Michael Brown, passed away on May 2, 2024, and even more so to find out only after thirty days had passed. I had gone to see him because I noticed his house was up for sale. I assumed he was moving to Florida or somewhere else...

Silent Treatment

We have a comedian at our workplace. One day, during the beginning of my carrier in this place, I asked him if I could check my e-mail from my work computer. He responded, “Go crazy, just keep the pants on”. I didn’t laugh, so he said it again. I just smiled and went...

Social media

I have some friends who don’t like Facebook or twitter (may be they even hate it). I told them to join several times but they avoided by giving many excuses. I think social media makes communication easier. I only have their phone numbers but sometimes I don’t want to...
