Nobody doubts about the bags but that is unsightly too.

Annoying because no one's going to climb up there to get
rid of it.

The bags have been proved. I can't tell what the heck this stuff is.

Really? How funny. Only in your area, I guess.
You put all that there and staged the photo, didn't you?
Come on - fess up. hahahaha

BTW, you stopped to take the pic....did you bother
to gather them all up and remove them?

I didn't think so.

She bothered to stop and take the picture.
Hopefully, she then put camera down and removed
all that trash. Bet she didn't though.

Reminds me of an incident at the local Y. I was walking across the
parking lot and about 30-40 yards away there was a bunch of trash on the
ground. It looked like someone had had a drive thru take out meal and
dumped the bag, wrapper and cup on the ground. There was a couple
walking past it and the guy made a big deal of it, pointing and
gesturing and carrying on. Sure. Someone had been a real slob and
dumped their garbage there and that was bad, but he was making such a
big deal over it. Apparently it did not incense him enough that he was
inspired to pick it up.

I do that all the time in my neighborhood. Walking trash down the
street to the dumpster, I'll stop and pick up debris as I'm
going. Why not? I heading to the trash anyway.

I have been known to do that too... depending on the nature of the
trash. I just thought it was weird about this guy because he was
carrying on so much about it. He was gesturing and pointing and saying
something to his wife about it. I could not help but think that if it
bothered him so much he could have picked it up and carried it to the
trash can that he would be walking right past on the way into the Y.

We have men patrolling our streets every day each with a bin bag and a long
stick with (kind of) tongs on the end they use to pick up rubbish. I was
surprised to see one today, trudging through the snow

We can be fined for not picking up our dog's mess. But I always have done

I didn't stop to take the pic, took it from my diningroom window. I
did mention that Xmas Day night we had high winds with gusts up to
hurricane force, we lost power (along with many others) all that
night.

I will remove all the plastic but today is bitterly cold with a wind
chill factor as well so it won't be today. Besides which if I ask the
super to give me access to the tool room, he will want to know why,
then he will insist that he goes out and does it, I prefer to let him
enjoy his break at least until tomorrow. I can avoid looking out that
window.

As I said, I haven't removed the plastic ---yet--- but have every
intention of doing so, but not today when it is eye-watery cold. So
get off my case ingrate!

You're supposed to do it here too or face a fine, but you'd be surprised how

Looks like the plastic wrap used for pallets and stuff but I can't be sure.

I've delivered it back to the dog's owner. I bet they appreciated it too.

I saw a funny old western movie the other night.
As a trick, these two picked up and moved the outhouse
back about 3 feet then waited.

In the dark, the person finally came out of his house
to use the outhouse. Right before he got to it, he fell
into the nasty poopy pit which was now in front of the
outhouse, not inside.

It was funny, guess you had to be there and see it. ;-D

I couldn't reach all that crap! And usually when it's in
trees it's out of reach unless you can climb. I'm not
inclined to break my neck (or the tree) trying to pick out
debris.

Once when dh was outside doing yard chores some woman allowed her dog to
poop on our front lawn and then she walked off. He said he was too surprised
to say anything at the time, so he got a plastic bag and cleaned it up, if
it was me...I would have chased her down and made her come back while giving
HER the plastic bag to clean it up. Good thing she got him. LOL

Who gets fined for all the goose poop in my yard, and skunk, raccoon,

running loose, they'd become a meal.

If people are walking those things around on leashes into your space, then
they should clean up the poop!

I would think it is something like that but after 48 hours in all the
wind, hard to be sure.

I did that once years ago. My eldest grandson as a toddler on OUR
grass trod in dog poo. I knew whose dog it was so I shovelled it up
and put it in his mailbox. When he knocked on the door raving his
head off I told him he might have thought it was a nice gift, but we
really didn't want it and perhaps if he didn't like it, he should see
a lawyer I was laughing because at that point he was a Crown
Prosecutor

There's a claw like thing in the tool room that will do it - last
super used it years ago when the ill fated grocery bag was impaled on
a tree I could see from my bed.

I'm not complaining, saw pics of power poles snapped like twigs,
masses of trees and branches down, it was a vicious storm.

I saw a sprmkt bag in a tree, yesterday.

It can get so windy, hereabouts, no plastic/bags last long, anywhere.
I've got 4 shingles missing, on one of my sheds. The wind can take
off house siding. I've seen it!

Yes when the storm started into the windy part I was at my daughters
and a house just a little higher up the road from them was losing it's
roof. My SIL told me that they had totally overhauled the property
but the husband had decided to do the roof himself. He had told him
what their roofer said about adding a dab of tar per tile up there,
guess he didn't listen. It started with the tiles on the crest of
the roof then after that it was pretty quick

How about dirty diapers, used tissues and rotten food with hornets
buzzing around it?

Those geese are aiming at Popeye, but he doesn't know that.

It's bad enough that people let their dogs crap on other people's lawns
and not clean it up, but some intentionally take their dogs elsewhere
and encourage it. When I was a teen there was someone from another
street who frequently brought her dog to crap in our front yard and
would stand there and encourage the dog to have a dumb there, then
praise it when the dirty deed was done. My brother went out and
confronted her one day and she wisely stopped. I guess she took him
seriously when he said he would pick it up and throw on her front steps.


There are some pick it up in those little poop bags and then leave the
bag there. I see those things on the walking trails around here. Heck,
they could have just flicked the turds into the bushes and no one would
see them. I saw a lady do it on a bicycle trail on day. She had picked
the stuff up, tied the bag, looked around to see if anyone was watching.
I pointed it out as I went by and she said that it must have slipped
out of her hand. Yeah. Right.

We once visited with some friends in Sweden who had two dogs and took
them for long walks every night. The only mow the grass on one side of
the trails on a regular basis and the other side is for curbing your
dogs. The turds are hidden in the long grass.

Who gets fined for all the goose poop in my yard, and skunk, raccoon,
deer, etal.? In the 15 years I'm living here I've not once seen a dog
running loose, they'd become a meal.

But you see they don't have owners ... although I suppose if they are living
on your land, you might be considered to be the owner <g>

My brother's house was the last on the block and then there was an empty
lot on the corner. People occasionally would leave trash. He saw one
car dump two bags. He saw the car, found the address in the bag. The
fool left the windows down when the parked the car that night.

Ed has the right idea..... return it to the owner's house.

I take my dog to a leash free park. Most of the people are pretty good
about cleaning up after their dogs, and are also pretty good about
letting owners know that their dog has had a dump. There is the
occasional person who seems to think that picking up their dog's shit is
beneath them, and they will be reminded that it is their responsibility.

There is a dab of tar on the bottom of shingles. In order for it to work
properly you need to lay the shingles early enough in the year that they
will catch enough sun to soften the material and then when it cools it
sets into a reasonable adhesive.
