No possum and no rats what you eat then ???
You got grits ? How bout turnip greens and fatback . ?
I got turning greens!!!
Yeah but yous from the deep south. I bet you've even had black bean soup and boiled peanuts too . What happened with the fowl pox ?
Remind us Wednesday. We'll celebrate with ya
Porcupine? Ok, that's one we don't have around here. I bet that was comical.
I had a woodpecker land on my gun rest one day.
Pretty! Time for me to go howl!
Don't ask Shade what happened to the woodpecker...
I would gladly trade you our rats and possums for your porcupines!!!
Black bean soup does not sound familiar, boiled peanuts on the other hand!
I grew my own this year. Barney recovered with flying colors, there's one hen who has wet pox but she's doing well and then dry pox is making its rounds, it seems egg production might be dropping again :/ 
Got five eggs yesterday and 7 today, last week we averaged 10 a day.
How we met, huh? I'll admit that I went and copy/pasted/edited/switched emoticons this account from Elsewhere Online (though with the amount of digging I had to do to find it, it might've been faster just to straight-type the darn thing
)
Anyway, it was April of 1995. I'd been going to College of the Redwoods, Del Norte (CRDN), a community college here in Crescent City. I'd been part of the Earth Day activity committee--mostly because they were meeting in one of my classrooms before my class, so I figured I might as well walk the few blocks about 15 minutes early on those days and join in. The cultural activity chosen was a poetry reading in CRDN's library (there were clean-up activities and such as well, but they don't enter into this). Now, I'm not much into poetry, but I thought I should go, since I'd been in on the planning. So I helped set up the seating, and snagged a seat on one of the couches, which were much more comfortable than the folding chairs. The couches were along the wall, so that anyone sitting on them had to turn sideways to see the speakers. I was sitting on the front end. This young skinny guy came and sat at the other end of the couch. Out of the corner of my eye, I thought I saw him looking my way, so I started kind of rocking back and forth and looking out of the corner of my eye to see what the young guy would do. He was rocking back and forth, too, but I couldn't tell if he was looking at me, or trying to see around me. To make a long story short (What do you mean, it's too late?
), he was trying to see around me
If he wasn't looking at me, how did we get together? Well, a few weeks later, there was a school picnic (small college) and talent show. I'd written one of my once-infamous notes, and snuck it into his pocket. He ended up winning the talent contest, playing "Let It Be" on guitar. The prize was a couple of movie tickets. I don't remember what movie we ended up seeing, but we ended up walking home the long way from the movie theater.
We'd been seeing each other for a couple of weeks when I found out that I was 4 years older (how age never came up when we were walking and talking that first night, I have no idea...) I was 21. I was paranoid until Tom's birthday, 6 months later
Shortly after that birthday, I got a shiny ring. About a year and a half after that, on July 12, 1997, I changed my name from Hopper to Pawloski.

Good for Barney thought it took longer to go through the cycle but one would think like any virus of that type , they may be immune to it now . Egg production is off for me too. I got ten today but we are below freezing at night now .
Yup. It's supposed to take just a few weeks and that's about how long he had it. I read once they get it they won't get it again (like chicken pox.) Oh, that stinks. Well most the girls have finished molting and it's still in the 80s during the day, lower 50s at night and they have light, my guess is that the fowl pox has caused the drop in production. (Which everyone says it does)
Oh, totally unrelated to anything we've been talking about... Does anyone have an unused, still functional non-smartphone with a SIM card floating around?
Don't ask Shade what happened to the woodpecker...
I would gladly trade you our rats and possums for your porcupines!!!
That's cuz you never tried to skin one......
