Post No Cones

Scott Hardie | November 9, 2011
Coming home from work, I found two pine cones in our closed mailbox, without explanation. The floor is open to speculation as to the reason.

I'll start: Neighborhood kids heard of a new fad called "coning" and asked their older siblings what it meant.

I think it was a hobo squirrel sign for "will give nuts for looking cute and pathetic".

Maybe it's a sign from the squirrel mafia that I've been marked for death. If I don't pay up, I'm going to "sleep with the nuts."

:D

Reed Hastings decided that the movie business is a dead end, so overnight, he turned Netflix into a pine cone delivery service.

As a practical joke, someone has subscribed you to the "Conifer Seed of the Month" club. Next month: Swiss Mountain Pine!

The squirrel mafia has come to collect the vig on their loan - you now owe them three ounces of pecans.

Now I'm finding piles of twigs inside our closed mailbox when I come home. Either the neighbor kids are messing with us, or I pissed off the Blair Witch.
