I just read this in the BYC FB group. Reposting here for those that don't do FB:


A conversation I had yesterday morning...seriously:
Me: Hello?
Person: Hi. I heard you haVe chicks for sale.
Me: yes I do. What can I help you with?
Person: I have a couple of questions first.
Me: Okay. I will do my best to answer them.
Person: Do you have vegitarian chickens?
Me: Um...what?
P: Yes, I only want vegitarian chickens. I don't want chickens that eat bugs and frogs and stuff.
Me: Uh, well, can I explain...
P: Also, are all of your chicks freerange? I don't believe they should be in cages.
Me: Well, they are only a week or so old, so...
P: And I need them to be litter trained, because I don't want them pooping everywhere.
Me: Wait...WHAT????
P: And I want 3 roosters and 3 hens each, but I only want breeds that don't crow because I am in the city.
Me: So, let me get this You want vegitarian, litter trained, free range babies that won't make noise. Correct?
P: Exactly! When can I come get some?
Me: I am so sorry. We are all sold out of those for the rest of the year.
P: Oh, darn. I told my husband we should have ordered earlier.
Me: Wow. Okay. Thank you for calling.
Side note...hot coffee coming up through the nose hurts very very much, as does th resulting choking on it.
(cross posted, so if you have seen this...I apologize. And no, this seriously was not a prank call.)

Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Anyone heard Donna the deer lady calling the news station about the deer crossing signs? I'll try to find a link, it's hilarious. Regards, Leaf

Ok, a bit of good news on my part. My love, Sandi and I joined Blooie in celebrating 2/29 as our anniversary as well. we had an early afternoon ceremony with just our kids and parents and we were wed by our good friend who is a minister.

Oh, my most sincere congratulations! You both look so happy! As far as I've been able to tell, being married on the 29th of February hasn't caused too many issues....unless you count trying to apply for Social Security benefits using their online service. <sigh> It accepted me fine until I got to the "date of marriage" line. I'd type in the date, and click "next" and it tossed it right back at me, saying "you must enter a valid date." Ended up having to make an appointment and applying in person!

We usually celebrate on the 28th, except for the real year. Then we have a nice dinner and a little ceremony where we renew our contract for the next 4 years. It's kinda fun. Again, congratulations to you both and to your family!
