Well, you know I can quit any time I want, why I am still working on the afore mentioned thesis, and I have just begun some gound breaking work in the area of prenatal indoctrination methods for motivating chickens to eat weeds,and scratch carefully around iris rhizomes as the do so. I just began the incubation of another 50+ eggs with modified training taps. These new hatchlings will be capable beyond any of my previous broods, as they have been genetically engineered with duplicate recessive epistatic characteristics extracted from higly motivated irisarians. Not only will they keep the gardens weed free, and fertilized, they will have the ability to cross pollinate desireable iris highbreds. The hope is that they can be trained to read and type well enough to communicate those crosses and label them. I must confess that my first attempts to this were less than desireable, as I found some of the roosters in uncompromising positions with some of the prettiest blooms. I also found that the hens would plant their eggs partially covered with soil, but leaving the top exposed, much like one would plant a rhizome. Also, when they went to type their activities on the computer, they produced some rather kinky porn based on activities with flowers. At least I know they were on the right track, but I had to sell them all to the campbell soup company and start over. Since then I have been working at re-developing the prenatal tapes and they are playing now on an on going basis as the new eggs are being hatched. But, since they will not be fully grown until the summer of 2015, I will not get to see the results for some time. This research is demading, and time consuming, thus the need for increased fixes of iris blooms. So you all better keep the pictues coming!
