Narcotyzing This Function

What's new in the tumultuous world of Grizzled Grandpa Fist-Shakery, you ask? It's a new spin on a classic theme. Tired of telling individual youngsters to turn that damned music down, the old folks have expanded their vision, working the dark recesses of local politics in an effort to block the entire Vineland Music Festival, a three-day summer affair recently proposed by the makers of Glastonbury and Lollapalooza for a large parcel of undeveloped farmland in Vineland, NJ. What makes this particular glass of hater-ade truly refreshing is the name this group of malcontents has chosen for themselves: Neighbours Against Rock Concert Site. NARCS, if you will. Before you snicker, let's at least give them some credit for being self-aware enough to recognize and appreciate the ginormous number of buzzes they'll be killing throughout the Northeast. I never would've expected that degree of lucidity. Now, onto the meat of the issue:

"Many neighborhood residents share concerns about traffic, noise, potential crime... and the environmental impact on the area..."

Okay, let me retract my last comment. These people obviously aren't even aware of the fact that they live in New Jersey.
