Got the hose and bucket with soapy water. Started the job and in the background heard this irritating very high pitched sound. eeeeeeeeeee. There was a landscaper down the block, thought it may be his weedwacker. Washing for 15 minutes more and still...that sound. Landscaper still there. More minutes. Still, that darn high pitch. eeeeeeeee. Maybe the CD or stereo is going. Nope, it's AOK. Maybe it's the squeal a hose makes. nope. Tinnitus acting up again?... oh no. Landscaper now gone. This is crazy. Sound making skin crawl. eeeeeeeee. Now, more than 1/2 hour into the job I'm cleaning the dashboard -and- the cart's reverse switch is still on. eeeeeeeeeeeeeee. stop.

STUPID.
Funny!
