My only surprise on this was that it wasn't some guy out working in his fields. That is usually how i happens you know, it's cold in the morning so they'll put on long handled underwear under their jeans, then it gets hot and there's no place to go take off the long handled underwear so they get WAY too hot, there's no place to cool off. A few people keel over and die every year that

*Personal* I am really going to be glad when the 4th of July is over. I don't like some of the behavior of young people on my block with the illegal fireworks and the leaving of beer bottles on my lawn, and the window breaking and the graffiti. About the only efficieant way to cool my house is to open a door in the cool part of the evening and I sometimes feel afraid to do that. So I have to get up very early to air the place. That's not always easy because the muggy humid type of heat makes it hard for me to be cool enough to sleep well.
Then there's the cars that drive by with super loud bass on their damn music. It's always really unappealing music too.
I keep myself to myself and don't go out of my way to annoy my neighbors. I don't generally puton music that could be heard outside this house, unless it's the first step in calming extra loud music on a weeknight, then they might get fifteen minutes of Macedonian bagpipes or Gypsy brass. I haven't had to do that in somee time now. That much at least.
Then there's the visual effect of boys in those oversized basketball shorts. eeeew! *wince* eeew *shudder* eeew OK that last might be petty but they look at a distance like girls in knee length skirts.
