House Rules
“No!” the vacation condos manager barked, his stink-eye getting stinkier by the second. “You cannot borrow a screwdriver to repair your drone. Drones are strictly forbidden on the property!”

“And by the way,” he said. “No more ukulele playing on the lanai or by the pool. It’s strictly…”
“Forbidden?”

“Yes. No drones, no tools, no frets…and you don’t get no cigarettes!”
