Stop in for a cup of coffee

Driveby is a totally different than parking for 1/2 hour with the 'music' blaring. There's actually some rule about how long they can run it, but one guy in particualr is deaf, and to top it off his truck's generator is loud and stinks. Sometimes I'll walk down and motion to him, and he turns the speaker off. Another neighbor spoke with him a couple years ago - and that made it easier to deal with him. A woman's touch is often more effective than the angry guy confrontation thing. ;)
Yeah I’ve seen that work a few times. When I worked 3rd shift security at the local base, we had an older lady, Teressa. She was always really good with tense situations. I realized that the fight part of fight or flight response seems to get triggered much less often when a woman approaches things.
