Illegal "Industrial" quantity of peanuts?
That was the term that was used on a feller feeding squirrels in a park somewhere in Canada- the city government up there is trying to get him locked up.
Exactly what is an "industrial" amount of peanuts?
What defines an "industrial" quantity of anything?
I'd figure it'd have to be 1/2 a truck load to a train car load of anything to be defined as "industrial."
I've got an industrial 55gal barrel of oil though...
"Industrial amount of peanuts" is the most absurd thing I've ever heard and I got a good chuckle out of it.
If they outlaw peanuts, only outlaws will have peanuts- and we'll be stuck eating corn nuts and pickled eggs.
Canadians better hurry- before their local governments start making them get permits to buy and own peanuts- much less distribute! Sunflower seed won't be far behind!!!
I'm almost tempted to send that city a few 55gal barrels of peanuts and have them strewn throughout and blanket the park. Then the animal lovers would hate me for giving squirrels heart attacks.

I just heard a story where a father was called to his Canadian elementary school for an emergency meeting with school officials. He was met by police , arrested and strip searched and given the third degree. His crime: His 4 year old daughter drew a picture of a a person with a gun. Not kidding.

If you have an elephant for a pet you need an industrial quantity of peanuts.

Peanuts are regulated, he should have tossed a few pounds of Canadian Bacon and a case of Molson.

If you had ever turned a trailer loaded with five tons of peanuts up on its side, then you would know what an "industrial quantity" of peanuts is. Don't ask me how I know.:roll eyes:
"Industrial sized" peanut wagons . . . .

I just read an article in a British paper that their country and way
of life are going down the drain. That was the author's take, anyway.
Looks like the Canadians are on the same slippery slope.
Maybe we're on that slope too. Seems there's places in this
country where you can't fly the American flag. TACC1
