"Throughout the year I had noisy and thoughtless neighbors. They would often have loud parties that would go to the early hours of the morning. They were all in university, and of Indian descent (this becomes important later on). I had called the police, called the apartment manager, nobody would do anything about it."
Should have blasted them with Dr. Bombay
Classics like:
SOS (The tiger took my family)
Rice and Curry
Calcutta (Taxi Taxi Taxi)
And others :D
Then I found that a friend had some HUGE speakers. So, I borrowed them and set them up in the window of the extra bedroom that faced the street and their house. Then I borrowed an LP album (remember '68) from my cousin. And waited. Friday night arrived and so did the cars, trucks and motorcycles. I opened the windows and started up Tennessee Ernie Ford and "Sweet Hour of Prayer". He didn't get through the first song on that album before EVERY vehicle was gone. End of problem. I let everything set up for a few more weeks before I figured that they had moved the party somewhere else. I guess that I was a little bit disappointed because I wanted more of a fight over it. I put up with that for months and all it took was Tennessee Ernie to solve my problem.
People don't like to mix their sin with thoughts of God. It seems to make them uneasy for some reason. LOL
