    Dallas-Fort Worth residents hunker down for Election Night activities

    Pizza, Prosecco, perhaps a shot or two, and copious amounts of election coverage whilst I yell at the TV.

    If I don't wake up hoarse, hung over and manic tomorrow, I haven't done election night properly.

    UPDATED: Cedars district resident isn't fond of the noise at Lee Harvey's

    Back when I was a reporter in Fayetteville, Ark., we had much the same issue with one couple who built a loft apartment above a warehouse building that owned - across from a bar that had been open for about 50 years.

    If I recall, part of the problem is this: While yes, the law may say the club has to do certain things (i.e., stay under a certain decibel reading, only serve those 21 and older, as well as any applicable city codes), if they are doing those things, there's really not much the residents around the club can do.

    Sure, they can sue the club, I suppose, but in civil court, they'd have to prove that a reasonable person would have expectation of quiet in his abode. Well, would a reasonable person, knowing that living next to a club that has live music would mean noise, still move in and expect quiet at all times?

    No, I don't think so.
