Errol Flynn reported in "My Wicked Wicked Ways" that in his youth, he made a "goose bracelet" by feeding a piece of pork rind with a string tied around it to a goose. Pork rind evidently goes through a goose's innards immediately without being touched by the digestion process. He then fed it to another goose, and another and another.

Loose as a goose? In matters digestive?

Boyish prank -- things must have been boring on Tasmania, the back of beyond.
