I live on a pretty busy street. My neighborhood is made up of residential units two and three stories above commercial units on the street level. People like to say this neighborhood is "up and coming". I've taken that to mean that it's "under development"; businesses on the street level come and go.. some lasting longer than others.
When I first moved here, the commercial unit in the building next door was empty; up for grabs. A bike store moved in for a little while, but they didn't stick around very long. Currently a "Cash for Gold" establishment has taken up residence.
I have to admit, I wasn't super excited to have that type of place right next door... but you know, a business is a business, right? This was an indicator of a living and growing economy, yes? And they certainly have added a little extra flavor to our street with their flashing, strobe lights and huge flags proclaiming their trade. However, lately, they've outdone even themselves:

those things seem to be popular; there's plenty of the up here. must be inexpensive to use.
Yeah.. quite possible. And they certainly do catch the eye.... still, I'm not so much a fan of being able to hear one from my kitchen.
Though, it seems to be only a weekend thing, so that's not SO bad :)
