As soon as I can find a song with the lyrics: "Oink, oink, oink. Oink, oink, oink. Oink, oink, oink, oink, oink." Definitely easier than teaching them to *fly*! ;-)

I haven't been near them since the late '60s, while visiting my grandparent's farm, just before one of them died. they kept six to 12 hogs for themselves, along with a few cows & chickens. Hogs are a lot like Usenet trolls. They are nasty, smelly loud and hard to get along with. :( > > They can fly, but they can't land very well. All you need is a huge > > catapult and... > > Eeooo!

It *did* sound a bit wacky... (would a pig even *eat* bacon? I thought them herbivores?) |
