Note to self: do not mess with Chaney Trail residents

Head on a pike The Chaney Trail newsgroup has gotten rather bloodthirsty of late.

Fresh on the heels of the  lung and trachea found in a resident's yard (which now appears to come from a deer, not a dog), someone submitted a recipe for beuschl, an Austrian dish that is largely comprised of lung as well as other disgusting animal parts.  The homeowner responded:

Darn! I wish I had known about this recipe before getting rid of the beuschl.we should have scaped off the dirt, flies and yellow jackets and prepared a delicious meal for the whole neighborhood. With the price of meat skyrocketing, it's economical as well!

And if that's not bad enough:  there's been an ongoing spat in the neighborhood about closing the Chaney Trail gate.  It's supposed to be shut about 8 PM by sheriff's deputies, who conduct a sweep of the area to chase out anybody before closure.  That hasn't happened lately (sheriff's are claiming "emergencies," which is probably true, altho' you wouldn't know it to talk to them), and residents are concerned, as there is already the sound of firecrackers going off in the woods (as we've said: dry forest + drunken bonehead + fireworks = trouble).  So the residents are thinking of taking matters into their own hands.

After a short discussion on spreading the responsibility for shutting the gate, one member said:

On the other hand, heads on stakes are really good at keeping the wrong people out.

To which another commenter respondied:

Heads on stakes might also work, but then the Health Dept. and Vector Control would come unglued and someone would have to put fresh ones up on a regular basis. It's just not feasible or aesthetic...

Do NOT mess with Chaney Trail residents!

Hmmm Deer lung... Poaching perhaps? A lot of that reportedly going on by a certian frightening crossbow hunter who has been seen on and near the trails over the years......
