I thought you are an academic? Second nature, surely

You'd think. Sigh. I'm probably more the "scatter brained" academic type.

What? That's nuttin. I could top that w/o even unfolding the other half.

Nothing like showing a bit of spunk

I'm not sure the cockerel appreciates it. He'd probably prefer if she was docile and let him lord over her

He wouldn't be the first male in history, would he now

scatter brained academic type is a classic. My dad.

But not in his research, for sure - just on a different planet when it comes to real life, I'd wager

he always needed a secretary.

He dictated, commanded, and pushed.

Very type A, he has a crazy number of published works.

Haha true. I remember most things I read...I just can't remember from whence I read them! The internet has definitely not helped with this - It's way too easy to hop from topic to topic. Most of my "old fashioned" books are earmarked, highlighted, margin scribbled, etc. Ah, for the days of paper and pencil.

Except I would not go back typewriters. No thank you.

Excellent post!

The occasional helpful post amongst the silliness...

So since the ko shamo pullet has been healing up, I decided to try a gentle reintroduction of her and the cockerel. I let them both out to 'free range' in the garage. NOPE. She is a scrapper. Went at him immediately, and he went right back at her. Like a full on rooster fight. Had to split them up pretty quick. Now they're in two pens adjacent to each other, and they are posturing through the wire like two roosters that want to fight. I know they're a game breed but wow.

And they are supposed to be a pair? How will you ever breed them?

Hey Al, I haven't been over to the leukemia thread for a bit, how's your dad doing these days?
