Noise update

The noise is gone. Just thought I'd update you. No more blaring radio. I went to the neighbor's house and only their (very young-looking) live-in helper was there. I think she was very afraid of me because she just stood behind the screen door and wouldn't come out as I approached. I was polite and smiley. I introduced myself and then asked her to turn it down (in my best Visayan) and she turned it right off and I haven't heard it since! I didn't expect them to never play their radio again but I can't help but enjoy the quiet. It's wonderful. That poor helper though. I must have really intimidated her. (I'm so intimidating, aren't I?)
