Cockamamie

A bunch of fowl musings to celebrate the New Year:

Rooster from "Gates of Fire" is not my favorite character (Polynikes is, duh).
Alice in Chains' "Rooster" is about the songwriter's father--a Vietnam vet.
I just recently found out what a pecking party really means. Ew, bloodspots.
I was twice attacked by geese. First time: 5 years old on a Canadian farm by a white goose. Second time: 28 years old, on a run, by a Canada goose.
Mother Goose rides a gander. What gives?
The rooster is associated with the god Hermes. Because he's such a cock?
In the tenth grade I was awakened every morning by...you've got it--a rooster.
