R J, long ago we had a discussion on here about windmills and
turbines. I checkwith a company called Jacobson and at that time to
have everything installed a wind turbine with auto feed back to the
power company was something like $26,000 with a payback in something
like 8 years? not sure. but alas, our township will not allow wind
mills or turbines if you own less than 1.5 acres and even then one
needs to get the cnsent of the neighbors. . Lee

Police: Good evening, are you the host?
Host: No.
Police: We've been getting complaints about this party.
Host: About the drugs?
Police: No.
Host: About the guns, then? Is somebody complaining about the guns?
Police: No, the noise.
Host: Oh, the noise. Well that makes sense because there are no guns
or drugs here. (An enormous explosion is heard in the
background.) Or fireworks. Who's complaining about the noise?
The neighbors?
Police: No, the neighbors fled inland hours ago. Most of the recent
complaints have come from Pittsburgh. Do you think you could
ask the host to quiet things down?
Host: No Problem. (At this point, a Volkswagon bug with primitive
religious symbols drawn on the doors emerges from the living
room and roars down the hall, past the police and onto the
lawn, where it smashes into a tree. Eight guests tumble out
onto the grass, moaning.) See? Things are starting to wind
down.
Are you curious? Ask me about Temptations toy parties.
