OH, hep me lawd, I've seen it ALL....
DOING A BANG-UP JOB: George Pulido, 29, of Queens Village, N.Y., was bringing his children home from an afternoon birthday party when his son Christopher, 9, lost the grip on the Winnie the Pooh balloon he was carrying. When it hit the sidewalk, it popped. "Three cops were at the curb in a car and one of them called me over," Pulido says, "and said
he was giving me a ticket." When Pulido asked the officer if he was serious, "the cop gave me a hard look and asked me, 'Do you think popping a balloon is funny?"' The officer cited Pulido "making unreasonable noise." (New York Daily News) Sidhe

Reasonable noise: Small arms fire, but only before 3am.

If you've seen a house fly, you may still be in Kansas.
