Now that would work better than the wine ;)

This thread is one of the funniest things I have read in awhile. Leave it to Brokies to make all of this fun. You all are actually getting me in some kind of holiday spirit. And I love the chicken idea for Ennis and Jack ;D
Speaking of wild turkeys, I have flocks of them in the yard. I live on the side of a mountain anyway, but I think since they started developing the top of the mountain the turkeys have moved downwards to get away. These turkeys are huge although they are very small when they are babies. They are about the size of a "baby chicken"
And hey you know that the hail storm would not be good for the eggs ;) Ennis and Jack would have a major mess all the way around.

BUMP! It's never too late. ;D

I just try to picture this... thousands of chickens on Brokeback Mountain ... Jack carrying two or three over the water .... the boys collecting and storing eggs all summer ... what a delightfull smell the eggs would have in August ... bah, I think I better stop now :-X

My daughter was just walking our two chickens this morning. They really enjoyed it, craning their necks, pecking, and scratching with their feet. The chickens are producing lovely delicious eggs regularly, so they do not need to fear the knife of Thanksgiving. I just put three of their eggs into a pecan pumpkin pie.

Nothing like eggs that are
a) fresh
b) from hens that don't spend their entire short lives in airless dark cages the size of a piece of printer paper eating drugged food with their beaks burned off and wire cutting into their feet.
I recently read Jonathan Safran Foer's "Eating Animals." I haven't stopped eating animal products -- just stopped enjoying them. You're lucky you can eat an omelet with a clean conscience, FRiend.
