The Noise about Noise


Slick Skillet has responded with this addendum:

"Actually, that was a cast-iron frying pan that he evidently put a nice ding into which in fact, gave him the idea to put an image of himself on coins!! Moral: Cementheads are not as totally useless as some would have you believe. I miswrote however and should have cited section 17 rather than 6.... It fits like a glove if we are allowed to view the TOWN CRIER (as many of us do) as a "...domestic pet...." My point however is that it shouldn't take city by-laws to enforce the obvious; that a little respect towards you neighbours goes a long way. Incessant bickering at all hours of the day is uncalled for as is cranking the tunes to test the soundproofness of a room.... A little common-sense is apparently too much to ask for"

Ya can't argue with this logic. To clarify one detail: The Bylaw is nothing more than a guideline to remind us of the obvious.

Oh the Guilt...
This authors in-box was ringing with several replies by people who for some reason identified themselves with "Napoleon". Messages seemed like long confessionals. Fact is, we've all been on both sides of the fence. We've all gone through the renovation thing and from time to time I'm sure that many of us have had a knock on the door for whatever. I think though, that we've all been decent enough to comply with our neighbours request to keep it down.

Nuff said. We'll end this cacaphony here. Just a reminder..."Hug Your Pet Day" is coming up soon. Whew!...Tough crowd. I think I'll head up to Fifi's for a Guiness. Care to join me SS?
