Finally Figured Out What Will Make My Neighborhood Quiet

Mojave, California

Some may have heard me complaining how loud my neighborhood is. Probably a town of 70 to 80 thousand but think my Neighborhood rivals New York city. Might have heard me mention how dogs get scarred crapless as neighbors are always shooting off fireworks and constantly yelling at one an other. It is a rich city and I live in the poor part and better than most as far as crime and violence, but still so freaking loud. Lucky I can sleep through hurricanes, but funny thing is a hurricane will not wake me up, but neighbors will. That being said, had bad accident last night. Think driver was drunk being Saturday and all. Plus, the rumor Is he took off, as was down the road a bit.. What made it bad was hit power pole and the other side of street two blocks of houses all lost their power. They were not happy with that accident. Lucky was close to 11 at night and most could just go to bed early, but still think they are working on it and power is still out for them. That being said, had police camped out front my house the whole time and its been so quiet Not a peep. Even the dogs of whole area feel they could take good advantage of this break. Sad for the accident and not sure if anyone was hurt, but sometimes it takes an accident for people to see the error of their ways.

Evil is just a way of life happens to everyone because evil people are everywhere One of the few things where class does not matter. It does matter in noise level apparently. Rich people who party all the time usually live in secluded areas or have sound proof walls. Poor people just dance in the street and annoy everyone because they like to make sure you know they are poor and mad. True story and can't say I do not do it in a way. Just usually more respectful.

Oh they will be right back to normal in a few hours. Just maybe now they will stop parking in front of the house taking up our spot for a few days. Happens every time there is accident. It is a nice hope that I know will never change.

I expect the noise will come back with the power returning sadly

I was actually really curious to find out this miracle in order to appy it in my residential area no fights so far. Thanks heavens, but the kids are so loud and yelling and screaming not just normal play. Plus we have a tiny hill in fron of our house and they like to go down with the bycicles and what not. I can tolerate the noise but our new car is in front of the house and they could crash into it. My husband is stressed enough and that would really irritate him.

Oh yeah my car was wiped out on this street. it was just a cheap Geo Metro, but I kept it in tip top shape and had it a long time close to 10 years would probably still have it if some fool did not crash into it and take off. Not to mention had to call my boss to pick me up for two weeks till got new car. It was such a pain. I always remember the story when they say when you do you loose a car it is like loosing a child.. One of my Sargent's in Marines told me that. Never thought about it like that but how true it is in this day and age where money rules and need a car to survive.

Thank goodness for the lost of power. The police have to camp out. Do you think it will be good if some drunk driver hit poles every night?

No, because they might knock out my power and run over innocent pedestrians or kitty cats who like to roam at night. It is always a weird thing because our street has a high volume of accidents as there is only a stop sign and is a bridge between two cities and why such a busy street but will be honest and say sometimes we need an accident (sad to say) in hopes city and people overall will do somethings different. Never works though. Get a few days of calmness, but the insanity always remains.

Then I guess those police should stay in your neighborhood and people will shut themselves.
