They would have to be well trained of course, don't want them to do anything halfCOCKED, or there may be cries of FOUL play.

If a similar policy was put into operation at the US border would it make them TEXAS FREE RANGERS

Kat, thanks for finding it! I'm not going to admit how long I looked for that sucker, but I was ready to flame MMario. Just to get even, everybody sing along: "It's a small world after all, it's a small..."

Praise, that was horrible - I loved it!

Here's a better link for Chicken Run.

CRS got me there - Chicken Run Syndrome. (Of course in France the CRS are the riot police - a mean bunch of bastards if there ever was one.)

Yeah, I looked up chickens too. But I didn't look up Chickens...

And since we're on chickens, I went to see "Chicken Run" a few days ago. Best POW movie I've ever seen.

Versatile things chickens, in some of the villages nearby they make good anti-scorpian sentinels. Very good at pecking the nasty little buggers to death.

Long live the chicken, well at least until its time to flash up the grill.

Thanks for the help guys....I did search on "chickens", honest...

This topic (Nile Fever and poultry as indicators) came up a couple times this week at both jobs and I wanted to use this thread...then of course couldn't find it...

Thanks again...(I've stuck a tracer on it)

Ya know, I think I got a touch of the CRS too, or some related disorder, cuz I thought I remembered what you were referring to, but then I thought, "NO!!! They gotta be talkin' about a OLD thread! I only been here a coupla months! They couldn't a lost a thread THAT recent!"

Sho nuff tho it were a young-un!

I reckon I must be havin' me a Newbie Relapse.

Aw crap, izzat anything like being Born Again?

OK, joke. It's up in heaven, and Satan is visiting, and he's made a challenge. New times call for new spiritual battles, see. Jesus versus Satan, on computers.

Our Lord accepts the challenge. God agrees to referee. They get underway. Spreadhseets, PowerPoint, PageMaker, photo imaging, data bases.... mainframes to laptops, they are racing, doing things most wondrous in the blink of an eye, neck and neck. There is much cackling, and thunder and lightning, wowee!!!! Smokin'!!!!!

Then they get to the word processing side of the contest.

Jesus rattles off a whole Bible. Satan rattles off HIS version, nicely watered down, PC as hell, and oddly skewed in his own favor. Whole new take on the Garden story. Jesus brings on the complete history of the saints of the church, bam! Satan brings on the history of war. Jesus describes the perfect creation in ecological balance, right down to God working in the DNA. Satan whizzes up how to make nuclear winter.

They're like two master tapdancers. The deadline for finishing is approaching.

Jesus is working on the Master Plan for World Salvation. Satan is working on How to Win Friends and Influence People..... they're almost done..... when ZAP!!!! There is a power failure, IN HEAVEN??????

God comes over to see whassup. Satan is howling! Jesus is grinning.

God says to Satan, "Too bad, you lose, Buckwheat!"

Satan whines, "Whaddaya mean, big guy? Did you fix the contest and give Jesus a miracle or something?"

"Naw," sez God. "Jesus Saves!"

Well Mudcatters, the lesson is obvious! If you like a thread save it!

Hahahaaaaa!!!!!

~S~

PS, It IS Friday, right????????

Okay, now I get it. The only thing worthy(?) on that turkey, er, chicken, thread is Mario's song. The rest is really a piece of....well something. We all remembered the parts though, so I guess the CRS isn't too advanced.

THanks(?) kat!!

I think you're right Wolfgang.....and I was also thinking we might have made a reference to the canaries used to detect gas in mines, but I still can't find it on that either.

I can't believe we're all looking for this thing........I'm gonna' whomp you Mario.

It was in here, but perhaps in a thread aptly titled 'Look at this' and the story I guess was only linked to that's why a search doesn't find it. But didn't one of us make a remark about the birds having to wear mounties uniforms?

I seem to be the victim of bert's syndrome and cannot find the thread about the chickens as border guards to detect the nile fever.....

or was that a fever dream?
