[Leslie]

*sigh*

I'll get the sweaters from the basement when I get home....

Heck. We have several flocks of full time canadian geese setting up shop around here that never leave. They've even hatched their chicks here. Damn tourists.

 

[tonksy]

They were at the Chattahoochee nature center 2 weeks ago.

We have some that hang out all year in the pond at the stable accross the road. One of these days when I get ambitious I'll wander over and take some pics.

Or a shotgun. Goose is supposed to be some damnfine eatin'.

 

[chcr]

I dunno, there's some pretty expensive horses over there, they might not cotton to me wandering around with a shotgun.

 

[unclehobart]

Not to mention that the frickin things are Federally protected for some reason. They sure as heck aren't endangered. You get more time in the pokey for shooting a goose than shooting the cashier at a 7-11 during a botched robbery.

 

[SouthernN'Proud]

And the goose tastes better. Something to do with curry powder.









Lord, I apologize for that, and be with the starvin' pygmies over in New Gineau...

I'll get the sweaters from the basement when I get home....

I'm already wearing one, but I wear one when it's under 20C anyways. My thin frame does not like the cold.

 

[Gonz]

If we can't shoot a goose, can we find a real Canadian to shoot?

Celine Dion?

 

[Gonz]

OK by me.

 

[kuulani]

I think people here would go ballistic if someone tried to eat our native goose. I just don't think it was done ...

 

[tonksy]

What's it called? A Nene?

 

[SouthernN'Proud]

According to 13-Down in most crossword puzzles, yeah.

 

[Leslie]

They're flying out of here in droves. I guess this heat we're having is just Indian Summer and we're about to be slammed.

 

[tonksy]

According to 13-Down in most crossword puzzles, yeah.

Sorta checking my answers

 

[paul_valaru]

took almost 2 months but the slam is coming tonight 30cm in 24 hours, saw many Vee's last night, the geese knew it was coming
