I used this last year for Halloween by putting my PB on my porch and giving out candy to the kiddies.

I’ll be doing it again this year – Fairmount and Corinthian.

MW = “place” as in that’s my place!

Don’t mess up your computer. If you want the same effect, get your dog to crap in a small shoebox.

@Mauritius Kestrel,

Address is right there in my post. And, yes, I bring it in afterwards.

Also, moving on from the hardcore chemical/medical terminology, huh?
