Absent For A Bit ....

I am away for a little while working on a few or more episodes for The Adventures of My Space Alien Alter Ego story ... will return (to Earth) soon!

Notice: Blogger has screwed up and lost a bunch of photos out of my blog! They are replaced with a gray silhouette of a human head. I will eventually get them replaced with the correct photo, it may take a while to find and fix everything. So some of my stories don't make much sense without their photos, sorry for the inconvenience.

An Egg Sell Lent Dream

I just woke from a simple short dream in which my wife walks into the room and announces that I will no longer be allowed to have pet roosters (yes, plural)

First, I have no pet roosters
Second, I have no desire to have pet roosters
Third, why do I have this sudden desire to immediately start building a chicken coop?!?!?
Fourth, why did I think that 'Kanga' was such a great name for a pet rooster? Hold it, no, 'Kanga Rooster' is a great name for a pet rooster. 

Googling 'prefabricated chicken coop'

Well, I finally found something unique to give my wife for her birthday. I got an e-mail from the John R. Kasich presidential campaign letting me know that all their merchandise is FIFTY percent off!!!! 
(See, I am a true fan, I knew his middle name.)

-----

So, Cinco de Mayo celebrates an 1862 military battle defeat of the French army by the Mexican army. I think that means we can create a holiday for any day where some battle took place by any pair of nations. I think that will limit us to only 365.25 days out of 365.25 days of the year.

Maybe your wife has subtly let you know in your dream that what she wants for her birthday is a Roaster. I think if you reverse the name you could call it Agnak the Roaster. . . . That sounds like a good name for a birthday present or you could call the roaster Kanga and the chicken Agnak or the the Agnak twins or quadruplets, chickens like to have other chickens about.

Rob: OoOoOoooh!!!! YouR ideA(s) iS Egg-Sell-Lint ...see how I made eveN morE eGG shaped thingies witH thE (s), weLL, maybe (R) for rooster. You were using the word 'roaster' instead of 'rooster' - I am not interested in cooking the rooster just yet, weLL, maybe we wiLL have a scorching Texas suMMer and it wiLL self-roast one day by itself. I will tell the wifey that one of the C's of the C-N-C (Computer Numerical Control) studies stands for Chicken. So far my friends have noticed this dream post on Facebook but my wife has not noticed it yet, because I just KNOW she would have squawk'd something about it!

I think the Rooster Roaster spelling mistake was a psychological one. . . . I may need to eat some chicken soon. . . C-N-C might mean Curry Not Chickens and is a campaign to save the chicken from curries. My wife would approve of that she is vegetarian.

For some odd reason I understand the no rooster thing.

Rob: My wife is a secondary vegetarian, which means she only eats animals that are primary vegetarians.

fmcgmccllc: I think the only reason I would consider raising chickens would be to have fresh eggs. The most recent carton of eggs wErE Extra speciaLLy baD. But I have dogs, always wiLL have dogs, and they seem to be incompatible with chickens, unless they are probably raised together at the same time, so I will probably neVer have chickens. But we have plenty of wild turkeys that wander into the neighborhood, as we are just a few feet away from the wilds of the Texas Panhandle on the edge of town with steep protective canyons, creeks with trees and tall grass and mesquite. Pepper spends a lot of time on the top backside of the couch looking out the livingroom picture window at the world and turkeys going by, waiting for his precious human Ernie to come home. He will reaLLy be in for a treat visuaLLy when the deer show up again. Perhaps I should raise elk?
