  • I have a feeling that Dearborn is going to be waaaaay worse than the Alabama show, considering the pending bad weather. Uh oh. I hope that Dearborn has a well trained SWAT Team that is specially trained in avian riot situations.......

    << <i>I really didn't want to post this thread, but I have been asked by several forum members to do so. After getting approval from our legal department, I decided to go ahead and post the pics that follow.
    Now this is the picture that had the attorneys worried. It would appear that FatMan just bought 2 local gals for $4 and a rubber chicken. According to FatMan's attorney, "it is NOT what it looks like".

    If the chicken comes out of the poultry protection program, I up for it!! I hear there is a gold coin collector that has a hit out on the chicken and it's been hiding out every since.

    << <i>We want to see the pics of Jessica!

    Cameron, we were trying to set you up with the cute bartender at the first bar. We told her all about you. I actually took some images that I intended to show you. MadMarty told her that you would buy her a bedroom set. True story. >>



    So what did she say? LOL PM me the pics!

    Oh, no! You don't get off that easy. Post the pics here!

    No, he was choking on "some" of the chicken.

    I'm not sure about all this chicken talk on the forum. I don't think the mods are very fond of fowl language.

  • A little poultry talk never hurt anyone ... so long as it was properly handled to avoid salmonella.

    Not sure if the aforementioned chicken is still in the witness protection program, but it would almost be amusing to do a Where's Waldo report to see how many coin shows this poor critter has visited over the years.
