Yelling in a quiet neighborhood.
I live in a very quiet neighborhood. It's summertime and there are lots of windows open. Every once in a while I hear a guy yell. Just: "arrrggghhhh!" I don't know where he is. Maybe he's one of those grunting weightlifter types. It's only just mildly disturbing. Or should I worry that somebody has a problem? But I don't quite know where. It just floats over the whole neighborhood.

I'll wager that he's a video or computer-gamer. That's exactly how my son and his buddies used to react when their RPG characters bit the dust while playing games.
That's my normal reaction to the daily op-eds too.
One of your neighbors is clearly working on a sexual dysfunction issue.
Woe! that I could'st again pant and groan
n'er more now the lasses moan
e'r the flabby gut missing its tone
the little man straighten'th not like a bone
gluttony n'er lust my soul do'th own

There's a Sopranos episode like that. Dr. Melfi hears these horrible grunts out a window. We learn later that it's Tony doing bench presses.
I hate it when people leave their bathroom windows open!

Let's not rule out primal scream therapy.
Perhaps he's just been watching video of Bush's speeches and town meetings.
I used to live one block over from Ann and remember hearing those same screams from time to time. I think that they're coming from inside Ann's house -- probably the attic.
Tonya: Perhaps that's the ghost of Tony Perkins looking for his stuffed mum...oh wait, that's the cellar, m'bad!
Ann: Sure it's not yodeling? Maybe someone has fond memories of Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein."
You can give me a thousand men awho occaisionally yell, grunt, scream. etc. for the one dog two doors down who yips and yelps with the endurance of Sherpa mountain climber. At least I don't have to wonder what's going on, its a dog owned by an inconsiderate idiot.
Funny about the "Sopranos" episode. I'd forgotten that -- consciously at least, but must have had it in my head since it's the one explanation I put in the post.
Tonya: yeah, I think this HAS been going on for years.
Stever: we've got a dog across the street too, but it's not that bad.
We've also got some kids who scream as if someone is hurting them. I wish people would teach kids not to do that. I know they are only playing, but it hits a primal spot in the brain, where you feel you need to help someone.

I used to live across the street from a woman whose grandchildren did that. The grandchildren got older and stopped, but the screams didn't because the woman kept a parrot on her sun porch, and it had learned the screams from the grandchildren. Was a very loud parrot.
Maybe a very mild case of Tourette's Syndrome?
lmeade: yeah funny how I thought a dog lover would keep them inside on a 100 degree southern New Mexico afternoon. WDIK?
Any tennis courts nearby?
Noumenon: They're all pretty good.
