No, we can't, there are too many of them, there aren't enough ditches on the sides of the road in all the country to get rid of em all. Unless.... Cannibalism. Yes. Or maybe we could figure out a way to process them into a cheap and soft astroturf.
I've had mexican food. Even well done they're gonna taste like shit.
How about an renewable alternative fuel source ... real bio-diesel.
Those bastards down the street raid my garden at night and steal my peppers, cilantro and garlic. I have plenty to share and would give them away (I give them to the other neighbors), if they were civilized enough to ask.
Are you certain that it is people raiding your garden and not opossums or squirrels or some other animal? I have grapevines, but the birds and squirrels and other animals harvest more grapes from them than I do.
Yes, I'm sure.
I've caught them three times. The first time I 'caught them' it was a guy about my age and he just apologized and acted really embarrassed when I saw him. The second time it was an older woman and I asked her to stop. She was trying to say she didn't speak English, but I got my point across to her with my high grade Tex-Mex. Her response was to send the young kids, next time. Those little fuckers can really run!
There are about sixteen people that live in one house with six to eight cars and trucks parked in the yard. I can deal with all that, but the stealing is not cool. I've also had the neighborhood watch guys ask me if it was OK for those people to be out there. FUCK!
I have a small, but trustworthy dog that keeps the opossums, squirrels, raccoons, other dogs and cats, even birds out of my garden beds, during the season. I've taught him the word "MINE" as a command. All I have to do is tell him something is "MINE" and he will leave it alone and protect it. It took a while, but he's got it now. I can also add to the list as we go. He's very attentive, well mannered and rarely goofs up.
Trying to get him to stop digging, it just hit me one day to expand the meaning of the "MINE" command to the garden. He already knew how the command applied to things inside the house. "Mine" means he better leave it the hell alone ... protecting things was his idea.
The little dog, Snuggles (always let your kids name your pets!), is a little afraid of people, but those thieving kids aren't afraid of him raising hell and they have no respect for a fence.
MODDED TO ADD:
I hate being bigotted and racist, but I have the most difficult time (not being racist) with these people and their scavenger, coyote pack mentality.
