It was an iPhone so they can pretty much do anything but I suspect that he simply put the chicken on top of the phone when he roasted it. When the battery on my iPad dies, I plan on gutting the thing and using it as a chicken roaster. :-) >> >> The great thing about wild chickens is that they eat centipedes - I >> hate/fear centipedes.

They are liable to attack if so inclined. I lent my van to a friend and he told me that they saw a centipede in the car and it crawled into the dashboard. That was worrisome. Very worrisome. |

In this part of the county I live in I can't really think of an ethnic group with a large population, such as Montgomery County with Asians and Hispanics making up a large part of the population. -- CAPSLOCK–Preventing Login Since 1980. |
