Follow that Chicken, and other SRC NEWS!

Hello folks, let’s chat…I’m just dropping in to check on y’all. And, of course, to keep you abreast on all the straight running crazy news out there. Let’s jump right in with some local madness.

Somewhere in Louisiana the police are on the lookout for, “an aggressive chicken.” That’s an actual quote from a news bulletin. The suspect has gone, um, a foul of the law by harassing people at the bank’s drive-in window. He has been accused of charging numerous customers and has even tried to enter through their car windows. Allegedly, anyway. It’s early in the investigation. And by the way, I know the name of the Louisiana town, but the chicken is innocent until proven guilty, and I refuse to take part in the Internet’s mob mentality.

I mean, at some point, this public shaming has got to stop. I’m still hurting for that bear who has been all over the news in North Carolina. Bless it. The poor thing has found himself the butt of thousands of Internet jokesters simply because a picture surfaced of his oversized gluteus maximus, which is rumored to be way larger than your average bear. Granted, I could be a tad sensitive right now because I’ve learned to make sourdough bread lockdown while sheltering in place. And no, I’m not digressing. One story has everything to do with the other. Can I help it if I thought we were supposed to be fattening the curves? Y’all should speak more clearly.

Besides, who’s to say the bear is fat? He could be big boned. That’s not an excuse to mention one of my humor books either, even if the reference can be found in Sue Elle’s Girl Ain’t Fat, She Just Weighs Heavy, Jeff Foxworthy called that book laugh out loud funny, and a few book sales could help keep the lights on around here. Coincidence, people. And, my final note to everyone who is fat-shaming Mr. Bear: Try saying it to his face. Booyah!

In closing, and in keeping with the animal theme of today’s chat, here’s a link for y’all that is just flat out fun. It features a BBC commentator staging perfectly wonderful Zoom business meetings with his two labs. I thought about trying something similar with Beaux and Hank as a way of offering y’all some cheap entertainment.

 

 

 

However, in light of all the many things that could go wrong…I chickened out. (Does anyone still drop the mic? )
