After plotting with a little help from my office gal pals, we came up with a couple of great ideas! Let me run them by you:
* Listing tickets to an University of Arkansas Football game (worth gold to most people in AR) in the Bargain Column of the local newspaper...only make them for $5.00 each with her phone number so that thousands of people call asking to buy them.
* Since her yard doesn't have any trees worthy to showcase the good long streamer effect, we thought that beanbag stuffing all over the lawn would be a nice touch. I don't think that a rake would work on that stuff! I can only imagine that a shop vac would work.
Armed with these two very good ideas, I needed to make sure that I was going to return the favor to the right person. I don't feel good about doing it only to have egg on my face later when I find out it was another TP Bandit! I called my BFF, asking her if she had heard any rumors about who may have rolled my house over the weekend. She just started laughing! And laughing. I brushed it off, and went right on to tell her that I have revenge planned if it was the neighbor who threatened it at the game.
My BFF told me about a time when her house was forked and rolled so bad that it took a few hours to clean it up. She sought revenge too, dumping all of the forks and TP on the front porch of the family that she knew for sure was guilty. Then one day someone else confessed!
This stopped me right in my tracks! What?!? So, let me get this straight: "You don't want me to seek revenge on the wrong person, because you know it wasn't who I think it was!" She said that she would never tell me who it really was, but that my target was off!
I vowed not to entertain any more devious schemes of revenge, even if they are pretty good. No more seeking punitive damages for snide remarks from a husband who loathes those unreachable white ribbons that adorn the tip tops of our trees. No more prospects of sneaking off into the night to be a juvenile delinquent again. Fine. But I've got something else planned for my BFF! LOL

I forgot to tell you, you can also sprinkle Ajax on the lawn in a pattern or use it to spell out a word. It kills the lawn in that spot, leaving a permanent reminder of your vindictiveness!
Don't ask how I know these things, just bask in my evil side.
That will be reserved for hatred... Any way, the chick that I thought that did it doesn't have a lawn! It's just dirt. That's why rolling her house wouldn't be any fun. Here in the south if you use flour it brings every bug in the universe to your yard...that may be just as cruel! lol
You and I think alike!! LOL
