      Give the condo dwellers a whiff of grapeshot, as Napoleon would say.

        “Over the summer, we have entertained several times, and we have had guests sit up in shock when the cannon goes off,” the resident wrote. “It has also awakened them at 8 a.m. while they are vacationing and then blasted them again at sunset.”
        Despite the rediculous thread title, can't this guy warn his guests? It's not like he blasts don't go off at the same time every day.

            Agreed. It's not like they were there first.
