"What is Shea doing now?
... OH! She is playing with a toy chicken that lays eggs."
But my dear, you never for a moment mentioned that it is ...
- An Ah Lian Hen!
- That erupts into techno trash something along the lines of the "ai-yai-yai, you're my little butterfly" song that plagued me through my pregnancy days as I watch my siblings dance to it on the Dance Dance Revolution dance pad!
- That has blinking transparent wings and tail! IN PINK!!
- That the eggs are laid/unloaded from a mechanical laying/unloading ramp from where the rear entrance is!
- That it runs around in circles like its headless predecessors!
"Hejda was then a little primitive, whose greatest pleasure consisted in inserting her fingers inside pregnant hens and breaking the eggs, or filling frogs with gasoline and setting a lighted match to them."
I never thought that it would be such a joy to watch my daughter peer into the anal canal of an animal. Mental pictures of my little barbarian running amok in kampungs, chasing roosters and hens filled me with a motherly kind of pride - a pride that only a demented mother who secretly knows what her daughter is capable of, can understand. Shhh ... here's a wry smile for you ...
I had fun.
Wouldn't you?
Just keep the frogs and gasoline away.
PS: Have I mentioned that I hate eggs?

That chicken kicks ass! (Uh, hope that didn't conjure any strange images for you ... ) Where can I get one? No Chinese New Year party this year would be complete without one.

Hmm .. the rooster you mentioned - I will keep a lookout for it when I make my rounds at the Toa Payoh/Hougang/AMK pasar malams.
Aren't we all looking forward to what the Fire Dog has in store for us next year? Pups that waddle, flip and bark - that'll be an old school revival.
