The Case of the Tender Cheeping Chickies Page 8
Wow! What a night! Well, it doesn’t get any better than that, does it? And when it doesn’t get any better, it’s time to shut ’er down and call it a day.
Case closed.
P.S. I never would have harmed those precious little chickies. Honest. And all that stuff about chicken dinners? Nothing to it. Just a little joke. Ha-ha. No kidding.
Oh. Alfred’s and my chickens grew up and won two ribbons at the county fair. Boy, I was sure proud of those . . . slurp slurp . . . chickies.
