Help! I need some ideas.
I have collected a mess of acorns. I'm trying to decide what to do with them.
I'll probably be arrested as a terrorist for having them.

1. Why did you collect them?
Don't the squirrels need them?

2. Trying to think of something to do with all the ACORN nonsense about.
There are a lot more where I got these. I don't think the squirrels will miss them.

3. There will always be an England.
"London kids seem to be reverting to the good old days of Fagin and his gang, only with less charm and wit, and more bling and brawn. Blame it on the weather, maybe - it was, admittedly, the second sunny day in a row, and we all know that hot weather boils the brains of British males to mush, leading to an explosion of testosterone and an onslaught of territorial pissing. Wandering around some of Rotherhithe's less salubrious byways, I came across a gang of kids aged 8-14, all standing on a garage roof in their designer wear. They fanned out to line the front of the garage, and started throwing acorns at me. I stopped, turned, stared at them. They let up throwing acorns to glare back. I shrugged and walked on, and they went back to throwing acorns"

9. sell them in E-Bay
...say they came from the White House lawn and that all the protesters at the west gate distracted the Secret Service while you jumped the grounds to fetch them...or you could give them to the whitetail deer population over the winter...deer got it tough when the snow flies...or save them for slingshot ammo for the day when they pry our slingshots from our dead hands...or maybe sit on the front lawn and point a hairdryer at passing motorists and anyone who refuses to slow down, whack 'em with an acorn...bound to be other ideas out there...tryin' to be helpful...
