To: The very jaunty band of Merry Companions lurking outside my bedroom window
Dear sirs:
Good evening! I'm so glad to know that people today still take the time to enjoy themselves and have a grand old time together, just laughing and frolicking, and you know...screaming occasionally. I'm sure these activities are very healthy and necessary, however I wonder if you might be unaware that after darkness falls, a large majority of the population prefers to engage in a state of temporary hibernation. A further inference would be to suggest that it may surprise you to know that the manner in which a group of individuals, such as yourselves, behaves can actually have an impact on people outside your number. Of course each one of you is no doubt primarily concerned with the good of the neighborhood, and therefore I'm sure the shouts and pounding feet are merely meant as a comforting lullaby. How sweet of you. I'm deeply moved and touched by your thoughtfulness. In conclusion, I would like to thank you for your outstanding consideration.
Get off the street you hooligans, I'm trying to sleep.
With love,
Laura
