    I walked through the grocery store last week and the wing prices were way high! It took me a second and then I realized they must have jacked them up for the super bowl

    No fears guys! I have crossed a chicken with a lobster and it will just grow a new wing back when you pluck one off! (Therefore the term chicken pluckers). Not only will this increase the supply of wings but it will also give you a better tasting product!
    There is a huge opportunity here for you guys to make some big money with just a minimum investment of 5K. I will be having a contest to name my (our) new product, my entry is Chobster.
    Hope to be hearing from you soon, remember this is a chance to be in on the barnfloor of this great new venture. Please make all checks payable to Cash.

    Do I need a barnyard, or a bay, to raise these?

    Sounds like they might be good with some old bay seasoning.

    Yeah, I wasn't sure whether to stock up on that, poultry seasoning, or both. Might need some cocktail sauce too.

    Both if you invest in my second venture which will be putting chicken genes into a lobster so it will lay eggs on the seafloor which will then float to the top and can be netted easily. This will truly be the "Chicken of the Sea", it will be so hot that it may even put the Easter Bunny out of business!

    Due highly inflated wing prices and shortages this is what we are reverting to for Super Bowl

    I'd be carful about messing around with any lobsters in these parts. If the lobster men catch you, you'll end up being a floater! That is one very serious bunch of guys.

    This conversation reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Kramer steals the lobsters. I tried to upload the video but it wont do it for me.
