Nice and quiet. I lived in a city for three years. Never again.

That's when I finally realized that wasn't wax at all... less than 10 minutes after I finished waxing it. It's like those birds were watching from the power lines, waiting for me to finish. At least it had fresh wax to protect the paint from them!
Yeah it never fails, I get white bird sh*t on my dark colored cars and always black bird sh*t on my white Camaro!

That's not a bad idea. Do you guys sell a DNA-B-Gone cleaner to remove blood from the brush afterward?

I have a great neighbor. Never complained about my loud exhaust, of course he has a couple nice Harleys. Great guy and he made that comment one day and after I washed mine, I pulled the hose over to his house and washed his wife's DD.

You can be a great neighbor and not just joke sometimes, it's okay. Be "that guy".
