The Hindenburg referred to them as “Long Island Duck.”

And probably farm raised then as well.

This reminds me of the Long Island Duck joke.

A lady is shopping at a small butcher shop. When her number is called, she tells the butcher "Give me a Long Island Duck"

So the butcher goes into the cooler and comes out w/ a duck, he plops it on the scale and the lady says "Let me see that duck"

So the butcher hands it to her over the counter.

The lady takes her index and middle fingers and sticks them up the duck's butt, then pulls her fingers out, puts her fingers to her nose and smells them. She gets a look of disgust on her face, looks at the butcher and says "This is a Boston Teal. I want a Long Island Duck. Take this back and get me a Long Island Duck."

So the butcher returns the duck to the cooler and comes back w/ another duck. The butcher puts it on the scale, then the lady says "Let me see that duck".

The lady once again sticks her fingers up the duck's butt and then smells her fingers.

"This is a Canadian Mallard. Take it back. What's wrong with you, I said I want a Long Island Duck... go get me a Long Island Duck before I call the manager".

So the butcher takes it back to the cooler and comes out with another. This time he hands the duck to the lady instead of putting it on the scale.

Again the lady sticks her fingers up the duck's butt and then smells her fingers. "Ahhh, now this is a Long Island Duck".

Then the lady looks at the butcher and says "You're not from around here are you?"

The butcher says "No, I'm not"

The lady asks the butcher "Where are you from?"

The butcher turns around, drops his pants, bends over, looks at the lady and says "Why don't you tell me lady"

She should have immediately tested him , on the spot. It might have been the start of a stimulating relationship for them both!

I'm somewhat involved in that human baiting. If you can remember back about two years ago. I posted some photos of old weapons. Some thought they were Van Helsing tools. Those weapons are in a Vampa museum (now closed and relocating) We caught the eye of a lady that hunts bigfoot. They want to do something with the museum. We were all set to go and covid slammed the door on it. Our production team has a 2 year backlog in getting things filmed. Nobody knows now if they will get around to us. Plus they say i have complicated it by running for office

..........i have complicated it by running for office

You are going to find everything in your life complicated by that action. That's a big reason why good people will not run and we are generally left with the dregs and operatives of the political/business machines.

Brings to mind the words "public servant". Guessing not a lot of folks out there really want to be a servant.

In general, the ones that want to be are the ones we don't need and are the ones looking to further themselves.

Just look at the crop in our state legislatures and in Congress - party drones by and large. The few remaining decent people have been retiring and declining pursuing re-election.

Which is EXACTLY my point. Precious few are there to serve their constituents, their main purpose being to advance their own singular interests.

I had a gut tell me independents are the worst kind of politicians. He also called me a nazi. I’m telling people politicians should work via zoom. This worked out for all most every business in America. Why not legislators? I’m also telling them they can vote on every bill i get to vote on. There is no reason why i cant setup a digital voting site. If 27 people vote no and 26 vote yes. I will submit a no vote. Simply send me proof of voter’s registration along with your vote and i’ll count it. An email or stop in the office. I’ll have no party bosses to satisfy. This will be an easier job than taking a marble statue to the 26th floor of a high rise.

There are some people that are so stupid that they are not capable of comprehending just how stupid they really are.....and they have been breeding.

They have been......for years. If not Zoom, then one of the other 1/2 dozen virtual meeting systems.

No, I'm thinking the stature moving will be easier than having those stupid people meetings and lot less painful.
