re: #268 b.d.
We must have the same neighbor. Mine turns on his Harley then goes inside and takes a bath or something while it obnoxiously idles for 1/2 an hour.
My neighbour does the same with his F-ohmygod Fifty diesel truck, leaving it running all night next to my bedroom window. (Then I get gunfire before dawn, today north of town - sounded like a rifle brigade.)
I am tempted to stuff a potato up the tailpipe of his truck. Iāve asked him to stop idling it next to my bedroom window and he said no. (I wouldnāt be surprised if he ārolled coalā on the socialist board memberās house next door. He has bitched about everything from the kind of car we own to daring to fly a US flag because I am a liberal. Apparently that argument is āliberals canāt be patriotic.ā)
