Quirky Things About the Place in Which I Live

We have a group of pranksters that have been around for over fifty years.

They've built a gazebo on the town green overnight, plopped a giant (25 ft high) paper-mache chicken on the roof of the town library, and hauled a "museum" dedicated to their own tricks to the green on a hay wagon and left it there.

The messages are almost always political. Several years ago one of their pranks involved giant figures made to look like our town selectmen with real manure busting out if their stomachs.

Every Halloween night something appears and then disappears a few days later.
