    That was my first thought, lack of calcium.

    My great uncle decided to get a bunch of laying hens. He is in his late 80's and thought he needed something to do since being retired for the 10 years was so boring... he still runs a few head of cattle and refuses to ever leave his farm for the retirement home. Anyway, we've had more eggs than I know what to do with bc you know Uncle Bruce didn't just get a dozen hens, no way he'd keep it simple, last count 68 hens. He has kept the entire family supplied or picking up eggs, dropping of cartons, running to the coop for feed and supplies. We are poultry producers now... I have to go up Sunday to clean out the coup and spread it on his garden.

    LOL. Yeah, forget hardboiling eggs fresh from the chicken. That's an exercise in frustration.

    I once shot a mangy fox about this time of year, I wanted to bury it the only thing that was thawed out was the chicken compost pile. I buried the fox in chicken **** and it was completely broke down and gone in short order. So if you ever need to get rid of a corpse chicken **** is the answer.

    I thought I was pissed off about eggs last night....until my commute this morning there must be something about the moon phase that make dumb people even more stupid. There are 2 kinds of people that insist upon driving in the left lane on the interstate retards and dumbfcks.

    Headaches. Not the figurative pita stuff. I mean those where your eyes hurt through to the back of your skull. Caffeine isn't fixing it, time to hit the vitamin I.

    I am only in the left lane to pass. The only excuse to be in the left lane without passing is when you are coming up to an on ramp that you see cars entering.

    I googled it, I like egg salad the prep time is what keeps me from having egg salad on a regular basis, no way I am going to invest a half hour in getting hard eggs.

    I sometimes use vitamin THC when I know I'm getting one of those burners of a headache. Either way I'm worthless for the day. Suffered with migraines since I was a teenager.

    Ok back to the rants

    Managers who point fingers to blame others.

    It is laughable really-until the finger gets pointed at you-in error I might add. A******!

    I believe that technically those would be known as hard baked eggs

    I guess you would be correct, however I'll still stand by my comment of them being the best!

    Went to Lowes, bought some bag dirt and then my coop for a little lawn seed to fix the yard ruts left by DoorDash. Filled it all in, leveled it out spread the seed and watered it in yesterday. Wife had Instacart delivered today, driver missed the driveway, chickenchit didn't tell her and I discover it when I arrive at home today. Livid. Nail spitting mad and livid. Like pop on Vulgar display of power and fist fight livid. Our driveway is 18" wider than any other drive on this street and it took 9 weeks fiddling around with the trust fund babies at the Historic commission to get approved wider and these idiots, two in one week, cannot seem to pull into it. I'm done. And by done I mean I'm on my way to the store to slash some muddy tires on a car with a Instacart magnet on it.
