Ooh! Chicken in a can, that looks like the last meal you'd have before turning to cannibalism.

Count on fools supporting your argument that rule making should be abandoned because the fools for whom the rules were made are least likely to obey them.

Julia, you maybe missed it, I posted a fitting reply to your mole hunter post, here is the link again for your entertainment:

Also be sure to check out the 'Hans Huckebein' story on the same page.

Wilhelm Busch told and drew some great stories(this dates to 18, and I am always hoping that Gabriele translates some more! Also see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_Busch

As to the chicken in a can, actually that is not as gross as people think, it just breaks the paradigm that chicken has to be roasted or fried. Try this: put slow cooker on low, put a chicken in (without anything else) close the lid and return 6 hours later to a perfectly succulent bird. Ok, the skin is not roasted(and best thrown out or given to a deserving dog) but that is the only draw back.

Hmmm, not sure I wouldn't make that my last choice AFTER cannibalism... ;)

"Count on fools supporting your argument that rule making should be abandoned because the fools for whom the rules were made are least likely to obey them."

I'm guessing this one should have gone under the OTHER post..?

The problem is, MTG, we have enough rules already. How about we try a little harder to enforce the ones we have?

"Julia, you maybe missed it, I posted a fitting reply to your mole hunter post..."

Oh, no, I caught that, the new 'recent comments' widget helps with that.

"...it just breaks the paradigm that chicken has to be roasted or fried."

Oh, indeed, slow cooked chicken is great, especially done in those clay or terracotta 'bricks'.
