Oh, for fuck's sake.

The downstairs apartment is being remodeled. The kitchen is being torn apart and power drills are whirring and things are getting hammered and slammed and pulled down and stuff.

At 7:30 in the goddamn morning. On a Sunday.

Seriously, people. What the fuck?

Hmm, that says "outdoors". Maybe there's no law about indoor work?

Operating or permitting the operation of any ... grinder ...

What if it's 10:00pm but you're really hungry? :o\

Then you'll just have to forego the mechanically powered one and manage with a manually operated variety of grinder instead.
