Our Family: May 2006 Archives

There are some really strange people in the world. OK... some would probably think that I’m a bit “off” as well, but there is at least a logic to what I do.

I came home from work tonight, and noticed something weird. All over the front of our home, someone had scattered paper plates. I figured that since it was the day that the garbage is picked up, someone didn’t secure their garbage as well as they should, and it blew over into our lawn. This is where the wildflowers are planted, in front of our house.

So, I went to pick up the paper plates and all over the area, someone had placed plastic forks and plastic knives (sharp points sticking up into the air) into the soil. There must have been one hundred of them.

So, as I’m picking these up, my neighbor is going out to pick up his mail, stands there, and just looks at me like I’m nuts. I ignore him.

But I’m left wondering, why would anyone do such a weird thing? What was the point? Maybe just to freak me out?

Well, they succeeded.
