    My guess is that fish was swiped from a backyard pond by a bird who couldn't hold on to it.

    No wonder the fish tried to escape. The backyard ponds were all frozen over last week!

    Melalvai, lol.

    I found 3 rolls of toilet paper that was chucked from a car. But it's not near the toilet that met the same fate.

    Also-- a console t.v. and couch.

    I don't know why, but that fish is making me giggle. Even though he did lose his life...

    I used to live in coastal town with a large commercial fishing port. One day (while not on my bike), walking back to my apartment in a house nestled among the processing plants (lovely neighborhood ), a herring fell out of the sky and landed with a <<SPLAT!>> not far from me. I suspect some poor gull lost his dinner, but it was pretty funny.

    Happily or not, I haven't found anything interesting on rides lately. I did find a $5 in the pocket of my pants I packed in my pannier this morning, tho'. That was pretty cool.

    And Pfunk12, I am beginning to realize, finds trouble on lots of her rides!

    I saw a group of men with guns. They were in a slightly isolated location under a highway overpass. Few people other than bikers would see them.

    I'm sure they were plainclothes cops. Still, after I got home I worried about seeing news of an audacious group of criminals who got suited up to commit their crime as bikers whizzed merrily past them
