This is obviously a rouse ... in order to disguise it's true nature as part of the process for defrosting ... Eskimo Pies!!

I'm sure that leaf blower will be coming to a yard sale here very soon. I also agree with you Gramma1. I'm sure they'll return.
On a different note....so the police gave pan handlers at Walmart a warning again? What does that even mean? Doesn't sound too scary or effective.
Eskimos?
