It has come to the attention of the condominium commisison that some grandchildren of our residents have been seen �hanging out� (as they like to call it) very late at night in our development. These kids have been roaming around the gardens as late as ten o�clock, long past our bedtimes. Please inform your grandchildren that they are not permitted to socialize in this manner. Failure to obey the by-laws of Boca Verona West, Phase 2, may result in your being asked to leave.

10:15 PM Phone call received from Mrs. Melnick, Unit 217, West Building. Voices heard from next door. Possibly coming from the adjoining unit�s balcony but resident was not sure because she had consumed one white wine spritzer at the country club dinner and she admitted she was groggy. She also claimed to have seen her long deceased husband, Irving, in the laundry room. Sent unit 6 to investigate.

10:30 PM Responding to complaint of noises from balcony near Unit 217, West Building, Security Office Birnbaum and myself (Officer Lawrence)

noted activity on balcony of Unit 215, the Capuleto�s apartment. Person(s) on balcony appeared to be in soft conversation with person(s) unknown on ground. Birnbaum and I left our Cushman Cart and proceeded on foot. We noted person in bushes and gave chase. Apprehended youth, male, approximately 14 years of age. Took to security booth at the main entrance in Cushman Cart. We turned on the blinking yellow light for added visibility.

10:45 PM Officers Lawrence and Birnbaum came to front gate in cart with yellow light flashing meaning something was up. They escorted in a young man who identified himself as Ronnie Montagorowitz, grandson of the Montagorowitz�s in Boca Verona East, Phase 1. Officer�s stated the boy was making noise under the Capuleto�s balcony. Called Capuleto unit. Phone was answered by the Capuleto�s nurse who stated the Capuleto�s were out for the evening but their grand-daughter Julie, was at home. Asked her to come to the front gate.

10:55 PM Julie Capuleto arrived at Front Gate. Took both Ronnie and Julie to the Grotto Card Room by the pool for questioning.

11 PM I was summoned to the Grotto by the Pool House by Security officers in regard to an�incident� that occurred that evening. Upon arrival I found two kids, one named Ronnie, the other Julie. I was told that their parents had been called but were not at home that evening. It seems that some sort of �tryst� was occurring around the Capuleto�s balcony in clear violation of condominium by-laws which prohibit any type of fun occurring on the premises (especially after Matlock is over at 9:30 PM). I asked to speak to the boy, Ronnie Montagorowitz apart from the girl, Julie Capuleto. We went to the Men�s Card Room which was deserted and smelled like old cigars. (Make a note to have the room cleaned.)

I asked the punk what he was doing. He was very animated. He said that he was in love with the Capuleto girl although his parents (who I understand live in the older, Boca Verona East) don�t like him seeing her because she is not of his faith. He wouldn�t tell me what he was saying to the girl so I asked for the security tape of the area from the guard.

(AUDIO ONLY-INSUFFICIENT LIGHT) "Damn these thorns."

(muffled voice from a distance away) Yo, Ronnie, let�s go. Bennie and me are tired. What the hell you doin� anyway?

(another muffled voice) The heck with this, I�m going to bed. I�m outta here.

SILENCE for about 3 minutes

Ronnie: I�m glad they�re gone. Which one is Julie�s balcony? She said she�d leave the light on. . .. that must be it. Be cool. Can�t look too anxious. Damn, she�s fine, though. If only my folks would be cool about her not being like us. Heck, her grandparents live in Florida, isn�t that close enough? She�s the only one for me, though. In my dreams I can almost reach out and touch her . . . OW! Damn thorns. (Rustling in bushes. Another voice is heard)

Julie: Ronnie? Ronnie?? Are you there???

Ronnie: Yo. Julie. Down Here!

Julie: Thank god you�re here. My grandparents are out, and I think the Nurse is asleep. I think about you all the time. I write about you in my diary.

Ronnie: I dig you too. If only we could be together.

Julie: I know. My parent�s would freak if they knew I was dating someone like you.

Ronnie: Mine too. What�s their problem? I mean, we�re not different because of our names.

Julie: That is so true. I mean, if you�re name was Monti or Montifusco you would be the same person, right?

Ronnie: Sure. And if your last name was Capawitz you�d still be you.

Julie: I know. Old people are so lame. What�s in a name anyway? I mean, you use a Macintosh computer and I have a Dell. We still IM each other all the time without any trouble. God. I wish people would get a life. Why don�t we just give up our names? Everything would be so much cooler that way.

Ronnie: Jules?

Julie: What?

Ronnie: Do you, like, well, do you like, really really like me as much as I like you?

Julie: Of course. I love you.

Ronnie: Oh God. You do? I do too. This is sooooo great.

Julie: Wouldn�t it be great if someday we could get married?

Ronnie: What??

Julie: I mean, you know, like really really far in the future. Like when we graduate High School.

Ronnie: Oh. Yeah. That would be cool. I could dig that. I could get a job and stuff.

Julie: Yeah. You�re not like other guys. You are so cool.

Ronnie: You�re cool too.

Julie: Uh oh. I think the Nurse is up. I hear something. I gotta go. Maybe we could meet at the mall tomorrow when it opens. E-mail me, OK?

Ronnie: Sure. Let�s meet at nine, when the mall opens. Julie, I really wish I could, like, kiss you goodnight.

Julie: Me too. Saying good bye is the worst. But I guess we can look forward to seeing each other tomorrow. Oh God, she is up. Gotta Go.

(Another voice)

Mrs. Melnick: Morris, is that you? Where have you been for the last two years??

Did you take out the garbage? Morris, Morris?

Ronnie: Julie? Julie?? God. This part is the worst. OW! Damn thorns.

(Rustling in bushes then quiet)

FOUND � Leather bound diary with "Julie�s Thoughts" in gold on cover. Found by resident on ground near Melnick/Capuleto units. Turned in to

Security booth.

Dear Diary,

My heart is breaking! I�m in love but my parents will never let us be together because my Ronnie isn�t the same faith as our family and my folks are really weird about stuff like that. But I love him so. He is kind, and sweet, and so cute. I know I�m young but I know I love him and that will never change. Guess what? Tonight, on the balcony, he told me he loved me, too! I know if my folks just gave him a chance they would come to love him as much as I do but they are just so stuck in their ways. Ronnie�s folks are the same way, too. I feel like telling him to just change his name so no one will bug us anymore. If we ran away together, and maybe got married, then our parents would have to accept the fact that we are truly a couple. Maybe then they would see that names and different faiths don�t mean a thing when people are in love. Ronnie and I are going to try and see each other at the mall tomorrow. I know it opens at 9 so I must get ready early to see him. Saying good bye to him was so hard. He seemed so sad to go. God, love hurts.

It is the opinion of the Condominium Board that the voices heard by Mrs. Melnick last night were most likely the result of young children, guests of residents of this development and Boca Verona East conversing with one another slightly after ten thirty in the evening. As that there was no property damage and Mrs. Melnick did not remember making any complaints the next day, we are closing this investigation but we will continue to be on guard against any additional suspicious incidents in the future.
