A tribute to our feathered friends

How waterfowl are mourned at Daniel's house:


I would also like to point out that headlines such as "Their goose is cooked; Canada geese gassed by Oregon community‎" and "Canada's goose is cooked in one Oregon town‎" are not funny. And I just plain don't get this one: Bend’s Goosegate Ruffles Feathers in Canada.

Oh wait, geese have feathers. And "ruffles feathers" is a term used when someone is bothered. And since the story is about geese and people are bothered about it we can be really really witty by using that headline. I do get it now. We can all laugh together.

"The next time I say something sarcastic I will point it out. Sorry, I thought it was self explanatory."

Thinking isn't one of your strengths, is it?

I'd say the primary flaw in his "thinking" (in this post, anyway) is the assumption that anyone would give a shit what he eats for dinner.

What bothers me about this story is, Geese mate for life and they only killed 109 of them. There is one out there that will roam alone and be sad for the rest of his/her life. Poor goose.

10:50, Dont get me wrong, I eat veal and love it.

However, they needed to kill all of the pairs meaning 110 birds. Not the 109.

I have simple solution to prevent the mates from roaming alone. Shoot the other goose and cook them together. Yum Yum.

If it ain't promoting hate and violence against latinos, it is picking on geese. What next...

Hey Anon 2:55,

Who's promoting hate and violence against Latinos? Examples with links, please.

What do you think about the New Black Panthers promoting hate and violence against "crackers"?
