Quarterly Amish Rant

We here noises down at the pond yesterday. I get in my truck and drive on down.

a couple of Amish teenagers were fishing in the pond. They were in my rowboat.

This really ticks me off because my rowboat is kept locked and chained.

They see me coming, row to shore and run off. As they do, the rowboat drifts back out.

They’re gone in the woods. I’m pretty sure who they are, just not sure enough to make an accusation.

They had cut through a chain on my boat to use it.

It’s about 8 O’clock at night. I drive back up to the house and get a pitchfork. I drive back down, and strip to shorts and sneakers.

As I walk out into the stagnant leach infested pond I jap the pitchfork ahead of me into the muck to scare off snapping turtles.

I swim out to the boat get in, row back to shore, load the boat on the ruck and put it in the garage. I take a shower, but thankfully didn’t pick up any leeches.

As a point of info for anybody that’s read other rants in this series, they aren’t really Amish. Everybody just calls them that. They are very conservative Mennonites.

The week before I chased some non-Amish kids off the other pond, while jogging. My dog and I scared the crap out of them.

I am getting seriously pissed at the amount of trespassing, lately.

Oh, man, I did a double. This and the trespasser thread are identical. If a mod would lock or delete this one, I’d be thankful. Sorrry for the screwup.

Maybe you could post a sign that says “attack leeches on duty”

Name the pond “Sterility Pond” or “Lake Flacid” and make big signs saying such. That should keep the teenage and above ones away.
