CAUTION!
Heh, heh, heh!
A couple years ago I happened to find a nice roll of yellow plastic tape. Since I suffer from OCD and can't toss out junk, naturally I could not leave this laying in the street useless and wasting away; I had to give it a home with the multitudes of other crap that I drag here to make my place appear even more 'white trash' than a Jeff Foxworthy skit.
At 6:30am, 'Cowboy B not D' and I joined forces at Copfriend's house (he's an officer in a nighboring county) and proceeded to stake off his yard with waist-high slats of wood. After we taped off the yard, we moved to the porch and tacked it off more caution strips and with huge yellow X's. The front door was sealed off with an X and a humongous "DO NOT ENTER" "NOTICE OF POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS BIOLOGICAL HAZARD" Etc. sign taped up too. (Thank you FEDEX Kinko's!)
Heh, heh, heh!
I received a phone call from Copfriend in the afternoon--he'd come home and saw all this yellow tape--he immediately wanted to rescue his little dog from inside the house, plus his 85yr old neighbor lady was freaking out and had called the Pott County Hazardous Waste Department wanting soil samples done on the neighborhood--and the police were there. So he tells me.
Yikes! I had some misgivings about the neighbor lady, but I knew his story to me was a false one--because I had already told the police department what I was doing (just in case!) AND even the mailman cooperated by rubberbanding his mail and tossing it onto his porch!
However, one of the cops were there...just to take a picture...and laugh!
Payback will be hell--so I hear!
