Chicago Park Auth. is going to be spraying Grant Park with special gas to repel geese by inducing diarrhea or the runs as kids call it. They do say it's safe for humans but what about babies?...

This is just awful. I think they should feed them fish flavored Alka-Seltzer instead!

What a statistic:


University of Illinois at Chicago biologist Dr. Joel Brown said in March that geese defecate every seven to 10 minutes, and over the course of the year, 750 pounds of droppings can be expected from an individual goose. That is more than two pounds a day.

I saw that. Dr. Brown's findings were published in Jobs You Don't Want magazine.
