Noise Pollution Rant from the Flyers

Noise Pollution 

I was up this evening late do to an attack of insomnia.  While watching the flyers and listening to the noise from the road.  It's terrible, the amount of trucks and cars that have no mufflers or loud mufflers.  Here I am in the interior of Alaska and you wouldn't believe the noise pollution we are subjected too.  It seems there is so many here that believe the manly thing to have is a loud truck or car. They rev the engines and speed down the road as fast as they can making as much noise as they can.  Spoiling the very thing we long to have by living in the such unspoiled beauty that Alaska is suppose to represent.   Living here as long as I have, I've come to some conclusions.  The end of the roaders have taken over.   They brought everything they are trying to escape from here with them so they won't feel so alone.   Sad but true and now they are Alaskans living the dream.  More like a nightmare of noise and inconsideration for others. 

Inconsiderate Neighbors

I have a next door neighbor, who's one of the most inconsiderate neighbors I've ever had living next door to me. Over the years, there has been a succession of people that have moved into this home. Since the builder sold it and moved away. To begin with, he moved several old vehicles in and put them over on my property bordering his. Ignoring property lines and cluttering up that side of his property. But recently, he's gotten into the habit of firing off fireworks late at night or early in the morning. Last night at 2 AM he fires off a couple of large aerial fireworks. I found out this is one method he uses to call his wayward dog. He's trained the dog to come at the sound of aerial fireworks. We do have a leash law but he ignores that and the dog runs free all over the neighborhood. This isn't just a one time thing, it's quite often. Loud booms are not conducive to sleeping at that time of the morning. Being it's now 8:00 AM and he's sleeping now. Maybe I should return the favor a few times. Do you think he would get the hint. This isn't the only problems I've had with this fellow. Over the last few years the list of his inconsiderate behaviours would make for another long blog post, these run from driving on my lawn to firing paint balls at my belongings from his yard.
