Savage Chickens by Doug Savage for May 12, 2023

I want to hear about this refrigerator!

Chicken Doug: “Well, at first, I was just in back there, just chilling…”

“Back when I was a kid, you thought you lost your wedding ring, well … I swallowed it. Then it was just easier to flush it down. Sorry, I kinda didn’t think that through.”

I have so many questions for my Mom. ☹️So regretting not asking her about stuff, I journal about everything that goes on so when I’m gone, my kids will know stuff. I also keep journals on my grandkids and their achievements in life.

And you can confess that you broke something all those years ago because you can run faster than she can now.

Back in the day it wasn’t unusual to get a little electrical tingle from the old two-wire plugs.

And you can dream up the most outrageous stories, then talk about how sad it is that her memory’s not so good anymore.

Since Mr. Savage is on holiday, I’m trying to decipher the background picture. Suitcase? Hotel bed?

Mmmm…fried chicken.

Well, that explains a lot.

Recently Mom told me how she had made a Molotov cocktail and thrown it in the street in front of her house when she was fourteen. It burned a trench in the asphalt, which made her father curse every time he ran over it in the car.

But mom, I was innocent, I didn’t take your last piece of cake…l

I have stories to tell my granddaughters, unfortunately they’re at an age where they have more important things to do. I’m sad that I may never get a chance to tell them.
