If it's not maintained properly and regularly, it will be horrifically noisy. (I lived with one essentially in my back yard for about 5 years.)<BR/><BR/>If I were you, I'd get the neighbors together and pursue this as a group. There's power in numbers. <BR/><BR/>Good luck to you!<BR/><BR/>~DogsDontPurr<BR/><BR/>PS....Maybe this isn't such a bad thing after all. If there is oil in your neighborhood, maybe you could get your own oil well and make some moolah!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18122582.post-46473832471294814712007-05-22T15:09:00.000-04:002007-05-22T15:09:00.000-04:00I learned something.I learned something.josh williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03442585673603814615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18122582.post-21390541355510934762007-05-22T00:04:00.000-04:002007-05-22T00:04:00.000-04:00You are more civilized than I am.

They tried to get me fired over that one. :)<BR/><BR/>Eventually, they tried to solve my problem with a band-aid. They wanted it to look like they actually fixed my problem.<BR/><BR/>I still have the problem, some 10 years later, but don't have the guts to fight city hall again.<BR/><BR/>Just a few more elections or funerals and I'll be ready to give it another go.

(I had the same problem with "Wuthering Hites", so you are in good company)<BR/><BR/> That said, I must say how much I enjoy these little snippets from the rust belt. How eloquently you convey the silliness we find all around us here in the Cleveland area.<BR/>I also treasure your periodic reviews of exotic sex toys....not that I will ever use one....I also read Mercedes road tests.<BR/><BR/> You make me proud to be a Northern Ohioan! I'd even buy you a cup of coffee. In a well lighted , public venue of course.<BR/><BR/>AND I actually read Free Times now and then!Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12964010161964360512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18122582.post-57983085359130106732007-05-21T12:29:00.000-04:002007-05-21T12:29:00.000-04:00Nobody fucks with the Jesus.

Shortly after they left around 11:30 pm, their 60-something Eastern European (what only could have been a) pimp would get home and scream at the top of his lungs into his cellphone about killing you if you didn't give him his money until around 5 o'clock am. Then there would be another brief lull until 6 am, when the girls would get home and run laps again in their heels for another hour or so, turning in just as the jackhammer started up again...<BR/><BR/>After breakfast, I would go spend my days surrounded by priests, in a library run by a reactionary right-wing Catholic group.<BR/><BR/>Ahhh....
