It was almost eleven PM when the "local constabulary" ambled by and inquired as to the nature of the reported disturbance of the peace I had been raising. (I had it up a bit too loud - I admit it) I was in the pool and playing some early Led Zeppelin and enjoying some decent deep-water relaxation in the cool night air.
I might have gotten away with playing any of the current "fake country music" bullshit about sister fucking, cheating on your wife and beating people up who already have fewer teeth than tattoos, that is a part of "top forty" radio promotions all over the nation or some form of "slap da BIGass ho' N kill her nigga friends rap" (seriously, I can not even allow my young children to go outside around rush hour, because the airwaves are "X-Rated" from all the damn Rap music that they beat out at bone numbing volumes around here!) that is blasted at very high volume from every second teen owned car that passes by - unfortunately, those petty crimes go completely unnoticed - BUT, an old man who wants to mellow out in his pool and hear some old tymie hippie music - now THAT is a fucking crime well worth investigating! We can NOT have anyone being mellow and gettin' down to Zep around here!!
