because we don't have one!!!

the bad dog neighbors came over and stole my two swans that were setting in the shrubbery at the back of my property.

i saw the swans on the street, waiting to be put in the garbage truck, and felt sorry for them and brought them home and made them a resting place by the creek. and i actually enjoyed looking back there and seeing them resting under the trees together. the cats played in them all the time.

how do i know those are my swans?........well, one of them has a crooked neck. they placed them in the side of their yard so that i would see them.

my friends want to steal them back. i'm not sure that i want to get anything more going with those people than i've already got on my plate. the neighbors want to organize a "swan-napping", at night, and get them and spray paint them and put them in my yard. one neighbor says he can straighten the neck.

my take on it is this.......they can't pay their rent. their utilities are turned off. do i want a group of smelly, mad people chasing me over two plastic swans? or do i just wait until they move out and leave the poor babies there and go get them then???????
