I'm not a fan of reading fantasy or general fiction. I love historical fiction or fiction based on true events because I learn something new. Movies? Ditto: I enjoy those based on true events, and I enjoy documentaries. When my mom gave me a year of Netflix I went on a major documentary kick but sometimes, I swear, my evil twin hacks my account and orders THE WEIRDEST assortment of things...

... which must be how it was that The Natural History of the Chicken landed in my mailbox. Why would I rent a PBS special about chickens?

It MUST have been because I knew Alice would watch the entire one hour special, riveted to the screen! (She watched it TWICE!)

Her love for chickens forced me to promise to get her her very own chicken.

Brother, can you spare a bird?

(If you look very closely at the reflection in the window, you'll see the television screen. Alice is watching the chickens walking about in fields.)

It's getting to be that time of year again... You know... the time of year Pumpkins get ripe and swallow up small dogs...
