Any one hear the whopper on the Today show about egg color?

My friend's daughter came home from school and told her mom that the teacher told her white eggs are from a hen that hasn't been with a rooster, and the brown ones are fertile.

We promptly got an incubator set-up and 40 multi-colored eggs in that classroom to do a little ed-ja-ma-caytin'.

I mean I know we aren't hard-wired with knowledge about chickens and eggs, but REALLY??

Better you than me, Dave. I was trying so hard not to say anything either.

I have been accused of being a member of the "Grammer Police". My DS thought it was SUPER funny to give me a sign that says "Bad Spellers of America Unight".

BCR - it's a French term - hence the weird spelling. Like Hors d'oeuvres....silly French people

Words like that always remind me of Monty Python's Holy Grail and the little dude with the bad mustache and big gloves on top the castle saying "Go away before I taunt you some more."
