So our house has a long driveway down the side which is completely full of trees and low lying bushes. It is pretty dense, and you cant see our house through it, on the other side is a funeral home. There is a side door that opens up to a little porch at the end of the drive way where we keep all of our recycling and garbage. I just threw some cans out and when I came inside my husband (just coming inside through the other back door with the dog) asked if I saw the man in the bushes. I said no and started to freak out - apparently when he was out with the dog he saw a man walk down our drive way and wander into the bushes/trees and sit down and start smoking a cigarette.
We turned on the alarm and went upstairs and were looking out the window and we could see him sitting in the trees smoking and rustling around.
We called the cops and as we were talking to them, the guy got up and wandered back down our drive way and started walking down the street, so I went outside to check things out. He left a plastic container half full of roasted chicken in the bushes, with a reusable shopping bag for the grocery store at the corner across the street. There was some other trash in there as well.
Now the thing that freaks me out even more - we are always finding chicken bones in our yard and we can never figure out where they are coming from. We assume it is animals bringing it in - we have spotted a raccoon, possum, groundhog, and skunk in our yard in the past. NOW it seems quite possible this guy camps out there pretty often and we just dont notice him - it was REALLY hard to see him through all of the leaves and tree cover, so its possible we just never see him - and he leaves food all the time and thats where all of the bones come from AND probably why we have so many animals scavenging around.
whatthefuckingfuck.
Re: Uh.... huh.
And holy fuucking wierd.
Maybe put up no trespassing signs and ask the funeral home if they know anyone who fits the description of the guy? Can you clear out the underbrush at all to make it more visible?

[QUOTE]And why only chicken? Does he look homeless?

Ditto this.....what's up with all the chicken. You have a veggie garden right?? Is he eating your stuff??
Ha, people are peculiar (sp?)
We always find shiit in our yard - pieces of hamburger buns, bones (mainly chicken bones), stuff like that.
I couldnt really get a good look at him, but he DID look drunk - he was stumbling around a lot when he was walking away. He looked like he was in his 40s or so, he was native, and wearing a red hawaiian shirt.
[QUOTE]Hah thats what my mom said, maybe thats who keeps eating the ends off of all of my beans. I havnt noticed anything going missing in the garden really, so I doubt that is the case.

So he only leaves the biodegradable trash behind?? I guess thats kinda thoughtful. Is your house near a bus stop or something??
That's just so weird and freaky Nebb

I hope the cops catch him and you can find out what's been going on.
I just closed all my blinds because I suddenly felt paranoid that some weirdo could be outside watching me. Not that I'm doing anything interesting....posting on the sb board and watching bridezillas.
[QUOTE]Maybe he has some weird connection with the funeral home...like his wife just passed away and that is where she was...some people are crazy like that!

I don't know if that would make the situation better or worse.
