the neighborhood

My street is kind of on a small hill, and as you drive it, it goes up hill slightly.  I have learned that if I go past my house and stop in front of the house uphill a ways and start talking on my cellphone this neighbor will inevitably come charging out the door--presumably to yell at me for stopping in front of his house on a public street.  Whereupon I will immediately take my foot of the brake and drive off. Ha ha.
