I did find it on my lawn....

I come home from my last appointment of the day, I see what looks to
be a plastic quart bottle of oil on my lawn.
So I'm a little confused (a little more than usual anyway), because
I did not throw anything on the lawn and it is way to far from the
road. OK, I figure as I walk towards the container, it must be a full
bottle if it was thrown from the street as it is a good eighty feet
from the street. I pick up the thing and it's empty? I read the
quart container and it says:
OIL W 100
Aviation oil for aircraft piston engines.
I have tried throwing it, I can get 30 feet at best.

do you think it fell out of a plane or is this oil used for
something else too?

You have the wierdest life of anyone I know. I'd go with the fell
off the plane theory - unless it was planted there by a neighbor who
knew it would drive you nuts.


Weird?
this kinda stuff is an everyday event for me, I thought these kinda things
were normal, huh?
as far as neighbors, I don't know that any of them are that clever,
besides, I think they avoid me for some reason, (I wonder why).......
Just glad it was an empty quart bottle and not the plane!!!
We have an apple orchard (Bashista's) near here(4 miles)? that Ted Kennedy's
airplane crashed into. here is a link:
