Please don't swim or fish in my front yard

Due to a little (ahem) sewage overflow I had bubblin' up from a vent in my front yard earlier this Spring – now fixed! now fixed! – the Metropolitan Sewer District sent me this sign to post, presumably down by the street.

So. Now you know what you can't do in my front yard. The summer just got a whole lot less fun.

P.S. As we were pulling into the driveway this evening, we saw a bunny rabbit sitting idly in the front yard. Sheila B said: "He better not try to play, swim or fish."

Gosh, in the days of Leave It To Beaver, I'm sure folks weren't so paranoid. I could see the Beav and Larry Mondello fishing in the pond of sewage overflow and lovin' every minute of it.
