    Well, if you put the forks out the racoons won't eat the tortillas cause they won't step on the forks.

    LOL..Here in podunk theres a little town called Nineveh, Every Halloween the entire town gets together and toilet papers the whole town. Its the biggest mess you've ever seen. And they dont clean it up, it stays till mother nature takes care of it.

    Your story reminds me of a time when my oldest son was still in high school. He came home early one weekend because he had to work on sunday morning, so the buddies that he was hanging with saturday night wrapped his entire car in saran wrap!

    Water hose works wonders at dissolving the paper in the trees. Ask me how I know this?

    I am really glad you have a great sense of humor. However, we had a horrible outcome to kids rolling yards last year. Wonderful young man came in from work just to see people running out of yard. Thinking they had stolen out of the shop, he chased them by vehicle and his young life was snuffed out in a minute.

    His family is still grieving and so is the community.

    My girls are in sports and drama, and we get tp'd, forked and chalked all the time, mostly spring and fall (homecoming, IMEA, regionals, other competitions etc). It's quite an honor :) So far and without fail, the culprits show up the next afternoon (giving everyone time to admire their handiwork and make sure the honoree is recognized) and clean up. We always make sure there is plenty of chili or speghetti waiting by the time they get here. The neighbors always show up then, too, and find out what the "win" was, and offer their congratulations. It's LOADS of fun for everyone.

They come back 2 or 3 days later, retrieve the flamingos, and ask THAT homeowner if there's someone they want to prank for a fee, and on it goes. It's pretty funny!
    Our youth group does something like that, except we use an old toilet from the junk yard. We paint it all up with flowers, wild colors, our name, etc. Church members can either buy a $10 "insurance policy" NOT to have the toilet land in their front yard, OR they risk having it there for three days, before we pick it up and plop it in another yard. Yes, there are several that pay the insurance policy, but after 4 years this has evolved in such a way that some people WANT the toilet in their yard. They use the opportunity to tell their neighbors about our youth group and wind up collecting more in donations for us than what the policy would have cost them!! It's loads of fun.
