On the local
TV news today I saw what the citizens of John's Creek, Georgia, must have considered the trial of the
century.
The
defendant was accused of blowing leaves excessively.
More than
one neighbor came forward testified to the horrors they had to live through: A constant loud noise of an electric leaf
blower humming away. One neighbor complained
that she couldn't even hear her kids outside playing.
The
defendant's defense in so many words, "I like a neat yard."
The TV
cameras were in the court room. The
judge lawyers, reporters, and witnesses were also there. The
judge listened seriously as both side presented their arguments.
The man
was fined $250.00.
This may be
even as serious or more serious as the trial when Arlo Guthrie got caught
dumping Alice's Restaurant's garbage out into a gully.
