    New fan

    Greetings all,

    I ran out of printer paper this morning and needed some really bad, so off I went to the office supply store. I decided to walk because it was such a lovely morning. As I was walking down the bike path south of my house along the little canal a goose was across the way just staring at me, but I kept on going, not thinking much about it.

    On the way back I noticed that the goose had crossed over to the path side, but gave me plenty of room to pass. Soon I was followed by the goose by about five paces. When I stopped the goose stopped, when I walked faster the goose walked faster. I ran into a friend walking his dog we stopped and talked, all the time the goose stayed the proper distance behind. When I returned to my walking John yelled back at me saying that the goose is now a kilt fan.

    Ahhh...that quacks me up!

    Honestly though, that is pretty weird. We have squirrels where I live that will stalk people (for food), but I didn't know geese would do it for kilts.

    Maybe it was trying to figure out the age-old question?

    Awww, come on Glen, no need to get your feathers ruffled over it!

    Let's just say the goose has eggs-ellent taste in tartans!

    OK guys, don't egg him on.

    You could end up with egg on your face.

    Actually, these jokes add up to a great big goose egg.
