Chicken feet have been showing up on the lawns, decks and front step of yards in Calgary's Ramsay Park neighborhood and residents say they are fed up.

Yeah, that'll learn them magpies! The next time they drop chicken feet in my yard I might come home and be forced to stamp my feet and curse!

Could be worse - apparently people who lived near the Towers of Silence in Mumbai used to get vultures dropping human bits and pieces onto their property...

One of the most revolting days I have ever had at work, was when a lorry carrying rotting chicken carcasses began to shed it's load all over York. The entire city stank! It was a very hot day and I worked in a very small glass and wood structure approximately 5 metres by 3 metres. We had to keep all the windows shut to keep the repulsive smell away. Makes me shudder just thinking about it [Eek!]

No wonder I'm a vegetarian!

Otherwise known as "a shed"?

Yes, the other general terms used by employees were - hut, cabin, box or "that NFBSKing NFBSKhole"

I've never seen such a pointless listed building in my life.
