Hmmmm ... do you actively eat chicken now?

I don't actively eat chicken. Not usually anyway. Most of the time I'm kicked back relaxing when I'm eating chicken.

BTW, you're looking very nice today, pooh.

Wouldn't biting, chewing and swallowing require some kind of action?

I don't usually think of that as work unless I'm feeling especially lazy.

Know what the best bird of all for consumption by lazy folks is? A phoenix. They cook themselves!

The wait is going to kill us. Can it be on purpose? (telepathy induced mass murder test)

Kobo Mini and Kobo Touch are marked down right now I'll try to hold on until the drawing but since my registration here, my dear Sony 650 seems upset. I'd better have this issue covered, if I don't want to end up empty handed in the middle of a chapter (again)

BTW, "to be on sale" means both "to be released" and "to be at a lower price", doesn't it? Is it only in US English? (the second meaning) Thank you

Having disposed of most of the moderators, it's Pooh's plan to get rid of most of the members of MobileRead too.

I thought it a thick clue that another person is in the house, maybe hinting to the German moderators (it was not clear where the German forum was), maybe even to Alex or Jellby sneaking in through a back door. Maybe it was necessary so that the remaining moderators could see what was happening and not only hear the crash.
By the way, without the door breaking open (and maybe even so) Harry could have been murdered by everyone, even by pilotbob.

I really liked the avatar of Agatha Chicken. Will we see her again?

I wonder if poohbear_nc and Agatha Chicken are friends? After all, birds of a feather flock together, as they say.

Pooh needs to "plump up" a bit; those legs are looking a bit scrawny. Drumsticks are my favorite...just sayin'.

There are indeed. Sock-puppetry is strictly banned. Unless you have the explicit blessing of the site owner.
