[RC] Generators at 3:30 a.m. - Susan E. Garlinghouse, DVM
It seems to me that if a neighbor feels the need to crank
up a generator at 3:30 a.m. for anything other than a veterinary or medical
emergency, than it should also be fair to expect them to cook a hot breakfast,
including eggs to order, bacon, pancakes and real coffee, for everyone within
earshot.
Say, within 400 yards. And deliver it to your door. For
that matter, if they're having that much trouble finding things to do at 3:30
a.m., they should feel free to manure-pick around my horses, as well.
There just isn't that big a trick to feeding a horse
quietly without turning on stadium lights and flinging buckets about. Or hey,
even giving it to the horse the night before---there's nothing nutrition-wise
that any horse needs 2-4 hours before a ride that he can't eat and metabolize
as well, or even a lot better, the night before.
