The reason I ask is because I found something strange in my garbage pail today. Actually, my wife did.

I put a bag of garbage out the other day and I couldn't find the lid to the garbage pail so I left it. Well, I was working on my truck at my dad's place when my wife called me. She was on the phone freaking out. Apparently she went to take out the garbage and she found an interesting "creature" in the pail. I guess the lid was off and this POSSUM (sp?) jumped in from my porch. But, he couldn't get out. So, I let him go.

Anyone else find anything?

Well my vintage trailer was kinda a dump when I bought it, and I found a meat hook under the dinette when I was cleaning it out.

i find a lot of good tools in the dumpster at home depot found a 2 piece milwaukee set with a blown transmision in the drill so the service center is fixing it for me at no charge.pretty cool

 

A human head.

 

Indiana is like that sometimes.

Buddy of mine found most of an oppussom in his parents garbage can. Asked his dad if thats really what he thought in the can. Old man says....yea...keeps throwing garbage out of the can. So the old man laid down the can.....waited for the oppussom to walk in the can. Gave him an extra push in the can with a 12ga. Yuk.....gross.

 

I thought Texas would be.

Human heads in garbage cans......nope.....just find em hangin from the trees.
Well, not so much anymore. The last actual hanging I heard of was 1989 on the King Ranch.

 

They hung someone at King Ranch?? Didnt know that. But I havent found much interesting in my trashcan but we have opossums around the neighborhood that freeze up and stare at you when a light hits em. Its kinda weird. But my friends and I have put presents in peoples cans for em to find...

 

I dont know it for fact. But thats what I heard thru a DPS trooper.
From what I understand they kinda have their own law, old style stuff.....because its older than the state Texas itself. I havent done a bit of research on it.........so really, I havent anything but rumor.

 

ok what is King Ranch? and a few months back, I had a coon in my trash can...with the lid ON and secured....figure that one out.

 

I found a methamphetamine lab in a trash can once. Does that count for strange?

 

Ah......yes it does.

Somebody dropped a mounted Jackalope in our trash can after it was emptied and when my wife went to grab it to bring it in she almost filled her jeans

 

I heard that way back before my time, these guys who went to my high school put a mannequin (sp?) in a garbage can. Bent it double so that the top of the head and the feet at the top, then put the lid on. I guess it got an interesting reaction when the garbage man took the lid off. As the anecdote goes "We never saw a garbage truck run a low 12 second quarter before....."
