   1. There was a noise problem for apartment dwellers near a parking lot.   
   This issue was solved.   
      
   2. As a prank, someone ordered 50 Waymos to a dead end street.   
   Not an issue   
   .

   Help. I am starting to miss "D".   
      
   When you say greenies, you mean the previous NZ coalition government.   
   When you say farmers, you mean dairy farmers.   
   All greenies are vegetarian makes as much sense as all male opera goers   
   are practising homosexuals.   
      
   Do sheep emit sufficient methane to matter?   
   Of course, the silver lining once the clouds of methane have disappeared   
   with the near extinction of domesticated animals, is that NZ highways   
   will become roads again instead of motocross tracks, rivers will be able   
   to be swum in, the Atlas Group will stop interfering in NZ politics, the   
   guys in charge of the USA from Poland and Belarus ancestry will argue   
   for a two state solution, the CIA will be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize   
   .... oops, that last one just happened.
