"Feathers for a War Bonnet"

See that Roster over there, the one with the big red Bonnet on his head. Is he an Indian? and if so, of what tribe? He struts around like he was a Chief of all Chiefs. Someone should tell him that he forgot to put his loin clothe on, this morning.

What’s that? You mean to tell me, it is the tail part of his bonnet! If he sticks out his chest any-farther, it is going to burst. What kind of a walk do you call that, a cocky walk!

Look at all them hens running for cover. Someone should take a two by four to that pot of poop. If you were to tie his legs to gather, it would stop his crowing. He looks more like the poop king to me.

Chicken feathers for a bonnet, is all you need in this hen house. Those feathers look more like they came from that crow that, the farmer shot down the other day.

Even the ducks are getting a laugh out of this one. A Roster that thinks he is a Turkey, wait until they start to stuff that dressing up his butt, then listen to him crow! Have you noticed, every second step he shakes his right foot? It looks like he stepped in a pile of cow dung .

When I was young, I had to sleep on a mattes made out of chicken feathers, parts of them stuck through that mattress cover and tickled me where ever they were. The straw that was put down first, for the feathered mattress, was dried out and it would make a snapping sound when they broke. I would laugh and laugh until someone made me get up and sleep on the floor. If your bed got wet, it sure would make that feather mattress smell.

City kids sure missed a lot of stuff by not growing up on a farm or in the country. I really don’t think they have an education unless they have lived on a farm. It should be considered as part of ones education to spend three months on one and then be tested and if they don’t get a perfect score, give them another three months and re-test, give them a test for social standards and politeness also. Like holding a door open for someone, saying thank you and excuse me!

No kid is dumb, that they just do not get taught these things. The parents usually teach the kids these things, but chances are that the parents weren’t taught either. Half an education is just like no education! A Goose trying to teach a roster to be an Eagle, is like finding a snow ball in the desert In the middle of August.

Snow balls, Rosters and Idiots all come wrapped with thin layer of, insert your word here. My word smells so I didn’t use it!

You can get it at almost any rest room ( toilet) with a book of treading stamps ! I once told a boy that he should walk on the street side of his girl, when they were out walking and he said, Why? Kids are stupid, Just ask your son or any young fellow that you know, why a man should walk on the street side of a female. If you don’t know, ask me and I’ll tell you why!

Most of these bright stars of ours, think they can walk on water. They also think they should start at the top and work their way up from there. Once they are on the top, they think they should retire. I fell that I must say, not all young people are like this, There are some kids that have learned these things. And you are really appreciated, and you walk among thousands of those others. So what I am trying to say is, you that know, should try to teach those that don’t know.

Okay Mom, I have finished my oat Meal, can I go out and play now? Thanks Mom, I love you!
