A gentle breeze - in one ear and out the other.

it makes a whistling sound

Here is one I still cannot believe.

"You farmers and ranchers do not feed me or my family I buy my food in the store."

they are stupid and they do reproduce.

They vote, too.

I've been reading this thread for 3 days, and still am only 1/3 of the way through. However, I've laughed until I'm sick. People just never cease to amaze.

For example: My neighbor's grown daughter, mother of 2 boys, came over to see my new chicken coop and the girls. She asked why I got them and I told her I wanted eggs that had not come from chickens that were raised in horrible, filthy conditions with their beaks cut off and feed corn and/or soy that had been genetically modified so they could spray it with Round-Up. I wanted only clean, natural food.

Her response? "I don't trust anything natural".

Yes, unfortunately they do vote because many of them are members of the u.s. congress and Senate!

7 Biddies, I have no idea how I would have politely/civilly/diplomatically handled the comment about not trusting anything natural. Oh. My. Word. I do suspect it would have been a very short one time only visit.

I would have handled it just like your little smiley face guy. I would have been rolling on the ground laughing my butt off!

They vote, too.

Now, that's a nightmare.

Don't remind me. My nephew just married the only daughter of a local congressman who squashed Georgia's Right to Grow Act. He's from a small, rural town in NW Georgia, but is trying to become a *sophistocated city slicker*, otherwise known as a "citiot".

"We don't want none of them tacky chickens or tomato plants in our residential neighborhoods. Nosiree! Why, next they'll be wanting to put cars up on blocks out in the front yard. NO! We want our yards over-fertilized and consuming disgraceful amounts of water so they can look like Astro Turf!".

I was speechless.
