I don't know what State your in 5Card ... but we don't have anything like that admissions testing here in Texas.

Heck, if they did stuff like that here there wouldn't be anybody on the road. Or ... in the schools.

And out in my home town of New Mexico they even said State vehicle inspections were unconstitutional and don't do that either.

But, I'd be glad to pay $15.00 to see you stand on one leg and recite the Gettysburg Address backwards!! Really!!! I would!!

When I was 14 my Uncle to my cousins and me Duck hunting. I'm a city boy through and through and had never used a shotgun. It was a long day and only saw two ducks and they were too far away.

Well driving back we see some geese in a pond on the side of the road. We sneak up on them, they take flight and I pop one of them. As I'm going to retrieve it a car is heading down the road toward us (it's illegal to hunt next to the road here). My uncle yells get in the car and I hope in back with my goose.

He speeds out of there and I'm sitting there with this goose on my lap when all of a sudden the goose lifts his head and quacks at me. I'm FREAKED out, this goose I just killed is staring me in the eye and quaking !!!!

My uncle says ring it's neck, I asked how and he told me to turn it's head. So I start turning... and turning.. and turning 7 or 8 times. When I let go it's head spins all the way back around, looks me in the eye again and QUACKS !!! I'm screaming, my cousins are screaming so my uncle finally pulls over and rings the damn goose.

That ended my hunting days !!!

I told this before but that reminds me of my first Salmon fishing in Westport. I catch a 50lber and it's thrashing all over the boat. The guy I'm fishing with says take that hammer and kill it so I'm pounding on this fish, I got 5 or 6 hammer sized holes in it's head, one eye gone and the guy says What are you doing? Hit it in back of the head with the handle. He went right out then.

We have to do emission testing here in Milwaukee area. 75.00 for the license plate sticker thingie. It is free to get the vehicle tested.

Here you get two tries for $15.00. My second try was them telling me I had to drive around. What a racket. The car can smoke so bad you can't see it from burning oil but don't let out CO/2. Well I don't think the fuse on my fan has anything to do with CO/2. Oh and license is around $95.00 on top of that. Here's all I have to say to them

Ok! I suppose I will tell my chicken story. It is a true story. :) We were living in Romeoville, IL and in a suburb. My mom decided one day to buy some chickens. I remember peeking out the window to see my mom running around the front yard. I was only 9 years old but knew something was not right.

I went outside to see 8 chickens in a box and one running around the front yard with no head. I could not believe my eyes. Anyway, I watched the gruesome execution of 8 more chickens. If that didn't haunt me it was the smell of feathers/skin with the use of boiling water. My granny used boiling water to get the feathers off the bodies.

Moral of the story: I did not eat chicken for many years after this horrible event. I would love to raise chickens but not to kill. I would steal their eggs.

I can relate. My mom used boiling water too. It really smelled bad. Then she would singe the little hairs or whatever they were after she took the featers off.

Thanks you Sweetie (((Hugs)))


The first time I heard this was at the 25th anniversary show at the Greek (apropos :)) in Bezerkley. Jerry look just like the video, OK not really, but he looked like death warmed over and could barely sign. I thought at that moment he was signing his death song..... that came 11 years later.
