Another Group of Idiots

[Ken]

Here's one more group of idiots: http://www.bostonherald.com/news/regional/view/20091107neighbors_aim_to_silence_old_ironsides_can nons_quiet_riot/srvc=home&position=0

[LostOutrider]

You know, if they just aimed the cannons a little better . . .

[Pal334]

Shocking that they would not rearrange everything so that these late comming yuppy pukes can have their serenity . And they expect to be taken seriously!

[oldsoldier]

Maybe they should move their yuppie a$$e$ somewhere else. They knew the ship was there when they moved in!! I agree with LO lower the cannon and change the aim.

It's ticks me off, but it doesn't surprise me. Ya see, in Va. Beach, people complain about jet noise. Navy fighter jets. You know....the ones that protect these idiots right to bltch and moan! The ones that have been here since way before their precious neighborhood was built.:sneaky2:

(As he shakes his head and walks away mumbling) People buy a house in the flight path of a Naval Air Station, and then fuss about jet noise......friggin' morons.....^$#%^^&^$...

You can guess my opinion.

One moment, sir. Did you look the condo over before purchasing it?

Why yes, yes we did.

Did you notice the cannons being fired at the time?

Come to think of it, yes.

Did you find the cannons loud at the time?

Oh, most definitely.

Then why on earth did you purchase the condo?

We thought they would stop.

Here's your sign.

I think Elizabeth said it best....... From Article: Other nearby residents agreed, including 52-year-old Elizabeth Ames, who lives in a luxury development called The Nautica.

“This is the heart of the city’s history,” Ames said. “If you don’t like it, don’t live here".

[2dumb2kwit]

It's kinda like that, with yankees, down here.
They move here to get away from the rat race, and then ***** that we don't do things like they do up north! Pffft!:sneaky2:

[Winnie]

Same thing here, Some yuppy tried to get the noonday gun at Southsea Castle silenced. That was several years ago. The gun still works just fine!:clap:

Oh and then there's the folks who move to the country and complain about the noise and smell from farms! what do they expect?? Cows moo, roosters crow, and they all produce poo! They forget where their food comes from...... Oh sorry, the supermarket of course.... Sorry, rant over:blushing:

[cowgirlup]

Those big whining babies!!!

We had friends who lived on a sailboat in the same wharf. It's one blast twice a day. And, they were right by it. So no one in any of the condos behind it can possibly be that bothered by it.

Morons!!

Move them to condos in Kandahar and see if they find all that pesky artillery noise bothersome. There's a reason why Ol' Ironsides is part of your history.

[crashdive123]

Too bad these idiots don't have the same sense of history as you, Trax.

[gryffynklm]

Ken, thanks for the update. This news pleases me greatly.

[canid]

wow, it's almost like they didn't have to buy in that neighborhood...

[Winnie]

Good News!

[hybrid]

Aha, do I see a potential niche market for "Giant House Sized Rubber Earplugs"?

[crashdive123]

Good to see that common sense is prevailing.

[LowKey]

Ha ha, the article says they turned the ship...
They turn the ship every year so it weathers evenly.
Next year...just wait. :D
Glad to hear the idjits lost that one.
