I have no tolerance for basketball dribbling during the noise ordinance hours (10 p.m. to 6 a.m.). My crossthestreet neighbor was up at midnight doing some carpentry, using his Skil saw in the front yard.
It's not my job to enforce the ordinance, so I called the police and asked them to do it. He was really nice about it (I could hear their whole conversation through my bedroom window, about 50 yards away--sound carries at night). I felt bad for him, just trying to get some work done, but I was trying to sleep.
I do NOT feel sorry for basketball dribblers.
