    I am hearing, lots of people are talking, that he was the shadow president since the election.

    The cognitive dissonance - or maybe they simply don't care about anything - is amazing with these people. I can't imagine being so reactionary that I'd just walk into it the way he did here. Like, Wow! The flag-waving myopia is truly amazing.

    I have a small warehouse with some grass surrounding it in Sanford. One of my employees has a chicken coop that he keeps there. The only rent I charge is I get a dozen eggs once a week.

    I wish the sold little one's uncooked. It is damn near impossible to find an old school "normal" sized chicken...even organic one's are pretty plump. The right sized chicken is the last piece of the puzzle for me to become the jerk chicken king.

    I posted this years ago the last time the Pubs had an eggapoluza price fixation. Buy a dang chicken coop and you get eggs all the time. The chickens eat all the bugs in your yard. Live off the land. Now, the problem is too many people live in gated communities with pesky homeowner’s associations. But many live with a car on blocks in the front yard and go to McDonald’s instead of the produce isles. Be a man or woman. Get a chicken coop. Better yet, go outside and build one. Or move to Maui. Free chickens everywhere.

    Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

    Just FYI. Kauai is the chicken island. Not Maui. And yes, they are everywhere.

    I’m almost afraid to click on your links as it might lead me to become as miserable and closed minded as you. TDS is real, but joTDS is on a whole different plane at the far end of a tangent.

    I thought (at Publix) it was the same thing as the uncooked birds. . . just cooked. I remember times when ours had uncooked and cooked for the same price.

    My frustration is the damn water. I tried to make this "simple roasted chicken" from a recipe on YT. Okay, cool, brown the outside then leave in pan and roast in oven. Simple as that, right? No. I come back 10 minutes later, it's dropped 3 cups of water and is now boiling not roasting. I kept thinking I was doing something wrong. Why is Marco Pierre White's chicken NOT dropping 3 cups of water and mine is?

    Then it hits me. I'm not using the same kind of chicken.

    Colorado also has some new BS free range regulations that are hurting supply (and consequently prices) here

    How many miles to the egg does your car give you?

    I’m sorry where’s the argument? I posted that by citygator’s illogic this is Trump’s problem. The problem with citygator’s problem is that 19/24ths of the difference was under Biden. I simply pointed that out and jo went on another of his ridiculous rants. Also, correctly and accurately pointing out someone’s true characteristics is not calling them a name.

    This entire thread is the epitome of TDS. Biden and his goons are the reason why eggs are so damned expensive.
