Someone (a real tight-ass type) put a sign in her space that said, "Don't even think of parking here!!!". Every time Bonnie and I saw that sign, we would say, "I'm thinking. I'm thinking." and it became a perpetual joke that we still refer to today. Maybe you should get a sign that says, "Don't even think of not picking up your dog's turds if they land here." This is a much more refined approach, dontcha think?<BR/>Congrats on your new car.

I mean, they have to go somewhere. I just have trouble with the people involved not picking it the hell up. You people with your bags in your pockets and what have you are leading by example.<BR/><BR/>Remind me to tell you sometime about the time my mother encouraged me to drop a bomb on someone's front lawn and how I instead went in my pants.Jennifer Myszkowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17138962381807636970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519519032097784619.post-51144431307192118602009-03-13T16:12:00.000-04:002009-03-13T16:12:00.000-04:00Ann, the idea of your milquetoast-y self pooping o...Ann, the idea of your milquetoast-y self pooping on your neighbor's lawn will bring me untold amounts of joy. Sweet god, that's funny!<BR/><BR/>Scott and I got ourselves good and tickled thinking about a Ghostbusters-style circle with a line through it over a steaming pile of feces. We'd need someone to design it for us, but we'd be happy to pay a nice local company to print that up for us on a proper aluminum sign. <BR/><BR/>Although I still want to post a sign that has the word turd in it.Jennifer Myszkowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17138962381807636970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519519032097784619.post-26352941836651953942009-03-13T16:05:00.000-04:002009-03-13T16:05:00.000-04:00I think that may help, just don't put a sign on yo...I think that may help, just don't put a sign on your fence like the one JenAdams noted. There's a house in our 'hood that has THREE of them on their front yard. Makes me want to poop there myself. (Not that I would, of course, but you know what I mean....)<BR/><BR/>Not logical either, as I have an abundance of plastic bags in the pocket of every coat I own. But still, you don't want to rile a dog owner who has such an obvious "weapon" at his/her disposal. <BR/><BR/>Maybe "Please pick up after your pup" would be friendlier still?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519519032097784619.post-85231400363034887862009-03-11T21:41:00.000-04:002009-03-11T21:41:00.000-04:00I was wondering if perhaps your grandmother nudged...I was wondering if perhaps your grandmother nudged you and said it was about time you updated your blog. <BR/><BR/>One house in my neighborhood has a sign under the mailbox that says "please keep dogs off the grass." When I walk my dog past it, I duly tug Ozzie away from their lawn. But I can't help but think most peeps somehow take a little offense, like, what makes your grass so special? Not that its logical, it is just some sort of knee-jerk reaction. <BR/><BR/>Of course, I am the type that carries a little dispenser of biodegradable poop bags attached right to my leash. Obviously, not everybody does this.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13837024273660153259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519519032097784619.post-89014109271041625802009-03-11T19:20:00.000-04:002009-03-11T19:20:00.000-04:00Trevor is the neighborhood trash-picker-upper here...Trevor is the neighborhood trash-picker-upper here in bustling West Hatfield.
