Some sonofabitch would die

I am convinced that when he wrote the first draft of "If I Had a Rocket Launcher," Bruce Cockburn was thinking less about war, and more about guys who use gas-powered leaf blowers in residential areas at nine a.m.

Our landlord, ladies and gentlemen. Our landlord.

*nods* My neighbor's son does the same thing...has this monstrosity strapped to his back to blow the grass clippings off of a pathway that's less than two feet wide.

Ron wants to go out there and say, "Dude. I have a broom."

Oh, there is nothing more delightful than hearing some fool with a leaf blower, noisily chasing that last goddamn leaf around his driveway for five minutes.

Yup, I hear ya. Lawnmowers, leafblowers, random landscaping appliance going off at 9am. ALL SUMMER LONG. By the time I learned to sleep through it, it was yesterday. Sigh.
