There have been some strange happenings here in usually dull ND that could be the basis of some interesting mytery or science fiction stories.
The first event was in Fargo. A couple of weeks ago there was a story in the Fargo Forum about a spat between a local hospital system and a medical waste disposal company It seems that a human torso showed up in a bin at the medical waste company, and the company blamed the hospital and the hospital blamed the medical waste company.

No one has indicated the identity of the body, or where the rest of the body is. Hmm.
The second mystery is closer to home, in our driveway. About two weeks ago, Husband found the decapitated, eviscerated corpse of a small cottontail rabbit. The head was lying right by the body. All the entrails were gone. Our dog is never in the front yard. We have no roaming cats or dogs in the neighborhood. Who (or what) could have done this? We live in the middle of town. Hmm.
Come up with some hypotheses for these strange events. Could they be linked?
If the rabbit had turned up in the medical waste bin, now THAT would be a mystery. Or a torso on your driveway, I suppose.

Wow. Gruesome.
I have no idea about the human remains. That’s certainly a crime though, so there must be an investigation… I would think.
The rabbit might have been attacked by owls. I think an owl will decapitate a rabbit. Maybe it was interrupted by something which forced it to leave its meal behind? I’m really just guessing.

A coworker’s husband works for ND Game and Fish, and he said it could be a mink or weasel. They had backyard chickens that were decapitated by a mink, and a couple of years ago we found a weasel slinking around in our garage. We live in the middle of town but there is a small stream about 4 blocks from our house, so it could be either, I guess.

It could be someone working on a remake of The Monkees’ movie, Head. Nah. It was stupid the first time. Never mind.

There is no mystery who chewed up Husband’s glasses this morning. Oh well, he needed a new eye exam anyway.

Not sure if there is any link, but both of these incidents are puzzling….nature can be cruel, and humans can be really stupid and awful.
