OT - Forget the dog, chicken is man's best friend

Not entirely so. Many years ago I read an account about a man who was
shot by his chicken. It seems he was about to do in the bird with a
shotgun while holding the "intended" victim in his out stretched had.
Chicken struggled, causing man to trip and fall and bird allegedly
caused shotgun to discharge into man thus mortally wounding him. It
may have been a "rural" legend but I did see it in a real newspaper.

I believe that he missed the most important point.

Whenever someone comes up with something that nobody else wants to
eat, and they test it on the market, they always get a response like,

"It tastes just like chicken."

Hardly anyone says, " It tastes just like dog."

Maybe in Korea, but almost never here.

I heard that too, but it was on a cheap radio, sooo........

Hey JT,

Why all this sudden fascination about "yard bird"? A REAL man doesn't eat
yard bird.

Actually, a "real" man eats what he darned well pleases.
