I had my earphones on, so he had to knock a few times. They caught the kid popping wheelies on the street and impounded the bike. The kid keeps telling police he never rides on the pavement, and that is not true. Anyway, I have a little peace and quiet for now. I hope he doesn't round up his gang again. Hope he doesn't grab one of his guns and come after me.

I am wearing my earphones and probably won't answer the door.
