The biggest story here the last two weeks has been a woman and her
chickens in my neighbourhood. This even hit a national news program.
The local supper hour shows are having a field day and every corny
chicken/fowl/bird joke has been dragged out plus legions of people are
calling/writing with their opinions. the vast majority say ..leave
the hens alone..

Got you beat. We have the Stupor Bowl coming up.
I have to admit defeat.
To make matters worse down your way, you'll still have to suffer the Pro
Bowl & a Hawaii Bowl?

Well, I actually don't watch any of them, but when the Stupor Bowl is
over, I read an Associated Press headline so I can say with aplomb,
"Hey...weren't those (winning descriptor) great!" to those I talk with who
bring it up.

It's not snobbishness on my part; I simply find watching professional
football as boring as watching NASCAR racing, figure skating and
professional golf. I do like watching the occasional baseball game,
especially in person.


Sort of like the rest of life experiences, eh? Read a little and claim
extreme knowledge.




How would you relate to "reading," Bilious?
