Yum, .... they taste like chicken, you know.

My mother used to buy them from the butcher when I was a small child. I have suggested getting a .22 air rifle to harvest a few from the back yard, but I can't get Mrs P to buy into the plan.

The small ones are only minions. The big one is watching you from its place of concealment.

When you look up, they drop on you.

Are you paranoid, or speaking from experience?

Oh, it's a well known fact. They land on your head. That's where the "wig" part comes from. The "ear" part, well, lets not go there.
