The Noise!!

While I have not yet been able to find anything that I dislike about living downtown, I think that quite possibly, I have officially come up with something, (well besides commuting 50 miles each day in a car that smells kinda funny each time that I drive it--which is probably from an obvious amount of neglect to it's mechanical well being, lol.)

My next door neighbor has some sort of wretched noise making object in his backyard that drives me absolutely fucking nuts while I am trying to sleep. You know what it sounds like when someone is using a leaf blower right outside your window, well luckily for me, this is precisely the sound that I hear right outside my bedroom window on random weekday evenings...off and on... for the entire evening. Now, I have come to the conclusion that my neighbor, while he has quite the meticulous curb appeal, that he can not possibly be doing yardwork for hours on end, while normal people are sleeping, for that many days in a row!
So, then I've started to think, could this be a generator perhaps? Well, I guess maybe it could be, by why the heck would he be running a generator for that many days/hours in November.--Afterall we certainly aren't in the middle of hurricane season or anything that would merit generator usage. Additionally, I've seen the guy's ginormous flat screen TV hanging from his living room wall, it's obvious he can afford to pay his electric bill, so the generator theory is a obviously a total bust. Lastly, I started to think, perhaps it's an air conditioner? But, that just doesn't make sense. No one in their right mind could tolerate a loud ass noise like that coming from their air conditioner for long periods of time without losing their sanity in it's entirety.
Now, please don't think that I just lay here in bed miserably listening to this wretched humming noise, without doing any detective work. Oh no, you can bet your sweet ass that I've gotten up to look on more than one occassion, but I can not seem to track down what in the hell is making such a serenading melody directly outside my bedroom window on any given night. Which by the way, also does not allow me to open my windows to let in any cool air, b/c yes, you guessed it, the noise is ten folds worse if you open the windows. Glorious I tell you, just fan-spankin'-tacular.
So, here it is 12:09 am and I am currently listening to the sweet melodies of the chain saw massacre re-enactment outside my bedroom window for the entire evening again.
:::sigh::: I guess I'm off to bed now. I'm going to bomb my neighbors house one of these night, just watch for me on the news my friends, b/c it's coming, lol.

I'll take a wild guess and say its a media tumbler for cleaning brass. They can be pretty noisy. Or perhaps The Lopper is paying him to run "work product" through the wood chipper.
