Lord of the Flies, Makiki Style

(Lord of the Flies is a book which shows how a group of boys can turn into savages, if no parents are around.)

12:10am, why am I not asleep? Two boys, maybe eight and ten, are playing on the sidewalk corner under the lights with some toy on the ground, whooping and hollering, having so much fun.

I'm a block away, but can see them from my 5th floor lanai; the sound around here is so that it carries a long way. I woke up, thinking it was just on someone's lanai next door, but no, it's on the corner a block away on the sidewalk, and, I'm waiting for someone to come out and say, "eh! get inside, right now!" with verbal scolding to follow.

But nothing happens. They are out there two minutes, so I get up get water, thinking they'll be gone soon.

They are still yelling, and playing. Five minutes go by. Almost ten, where I'm wondering where are the parents?? I drowse, and almost half hour later, they are STILL out there.

Finally, some guy comes out, and yells for them to get inside. I'm thinking he didn't even know they were out there until somebody alerted him.

Welcome to Makiki!

Makiki - High frequency noises

Anyone here live in makiki area? Specifically around 1541 davenport st? There's someone that installed a high frequency noise machine and I can hear it across the whole block for an hour straight everyday. Does anyone know what specific building it's coming from?

I'm trying to get in contact with the person so we can try to resolve the issue. I assume this was installed to deter homeless and stuff but jesus it's giving me and my entire family headaches

Speed bumps on Pensacola and Wilder.

Speed humps on Pensacola and Wilder please. I'm tired of the a--holes speeding down my street during the day and night.
