a homicide?
sorry. It is just what I do. not the homicide - the making dumb joke part. Okay, I am leaving now.

A parliament. I think of that every time my husband decides to watch Prime Minister's Question Time on Cspan.

It is the killing part that is hard on me...if show how to do correctly I could (maybe) eventually do, but once dead....I can get my hands right in there and do. Just need to be shown.

Oh....and I don't have any goats.

Other then myself - I'm an old goat.

The same lady who taught me how to do long division taught me to clean a chicken long before that- I think I was five. Killing them's another thing entirely, although Miss Twitterton (in Dorothy Sayers' Busman's Honeymoon) says it's just a knack.

It is the looking into their faces that I have a hard time with..but for some reason once dead I can do it. Maybe Heather's folks can give me a sure fire method and I can get used to it and I can do it myself. Sure would like to be able to do so.

Ya, know what I knew that too. I heard it on some sitcom I was watching.

My FIL uses a sharp ax.

But then lets them flop around for a while...which I don't like. I think the cone method is better....

Geeze - I'm going to build a beehive and I don't really care *what* she says about it.

I did not know that -- and I'm very glad to have learned that!!

Rainwolf -

Right on schedule! The units are basically "done". I have to finish the doors and make the dividers, but that is all that's left! If I had two sets of picture frame clamps, it would go twice as fast -- and some how, I ended up making 13 doors ....

By the way, if you decide what you want in a rooster is a Blue Laced Red Wyandotte, I'm definitely one long on those. You could have it for free, even.
