This is a fairly involved one.
Truck parks in front, BLASTING Billy Joel.
This persists for several songs, so about 15 minutes.
Guy comes back, tries to start truck.
....rrrrrUUURrrrrrUUURrrrrrrrrUUUURrrrrrrrUUUUUUR....
Guy get on cell phone to various people having VERY LOUD conversations.
A representative quote:
"YEAH BROTHER I got a bottle of the GOOD STUFF for you, you know what I'm saying? YEEEEEAH, BROTHER! We gotta get TOGETHER, you know what I'm SAYIN!"
Periodically, someone else would try to start the truck.
....rrrrrUUURrrrrrUUURrrrrrrrrUUUURrrrrrrrUUUUUUR....
"Hey, KNOCK THAT OFF, man, it AIN'T gonna start, you're just wearing out the battery! STOP IT!"
....rrrrrUUURrrrrrUUURrrrrrrrrUUUURrrrrrrrUUUUUUR....
"I told you to KNOCK THAT OFF! This is the last time! Seriously, man, DON'T run the battery like that!
I was amused, but it didn't seem worth of a post.
UNTIL.
I'm sitting listening to his one sided monolog, debating whether it's amusing enough for an update, when a lady who's been camped in a chair by the recent arrivals for about an hour and a half LEAPS to her feet, stomps over to the door, leans out and yells
"HEY! HEY, YOU! YEAH, YOU! THERE'S A STORE DOWN THE STREET THAT SELLS HEARING AIDS! WHY DON'T YOU GO BUY YOURSELF ONE! WE'RE NOT DEAF, YOU KNOW!"
Then she stomped back to the chair.
It seems to have worked, the guy is still out there but conversing at a much reduced volume.
And now he's out there REVVING the engine, having apparently fixed something, and just tore off down the street doing about 40 mph.
