'hello'
'hi, this is FRFC, Bob speaking! Are you having a good day?!!!'
'Hello, yeah; it's OK. Thanks.'
'Well hi, then! Just wanted to drop in and give you a heads up on our new Fund Raising campaign....I knew you'd want to get in on this right away!'
'Uhh...'
'Sure, it's Bob. Have you got your checkbook out?'
'...I smell dinner...'
'FRFC is a great charity...it's on Billy Bob's top ten list. Oprah too!'
'So, uh, what's this FR, uhm, etcetera stand for, again?'
'Yes, sure; it's Fund raising for chicks...you know? It's a great cause.'
'For chicks? What the hell! I'm not giving my money to some chick I don't know anything about! Next thing you'll be soliciting for dudes! Outragious!'
'No, no! Hey, not chicks. I mean not girl chicks, babes, you know--not chicks like that!'
'What?'
'No, Bob wouldn't try to scam you for hot babes, chicks, you know!'
'Oh. Sorry.'
'FRFC is for chicks..you know baby chickens. Homeless little yellow fluffy baby chickens.'
'Oh.'
'Yeah'
'Oh; man, that is sad. Those poor baby chickens!'
'I'll send you some literature, man. Some pictures of your potential chick adoptee.'
'oh, yeah. I need a picture (sob) And i'm writing you a check for twelve thousand dollars! (sob).
'This chick will thank you forever. You are a true American hero!'
'OK, thank you for bringing this to my attention. (ding) Oop, kitchen timer, gotta go.'
'Thanks, man...enjoy your meal tonight.'
'Thank you, Bob; baked chicken with mashed potatoes. Goodnight!'

Hey, that's a duck. A lucky blog duck.
(did I ever tell you I love-love looking at your vintage typewriter header?)
ha! such a story....
Thanks!
duck?!? did someone throw something?
enjoy the chicken...after that check...it should keep you in stock for a while.
nice play Tom.
That chicken is deformed.
Are u sure my $$$ is going for baby chics and not Pole and Lap Dancers?
Things just aren't as they seem anymore ; )
Oh God Tom!I don't know what to say about that.Lol.
That's the funniest looking chicken I've ever seen.
Looks like a hybrid.
You are so funny! The fundraisers I have the most trouble with are the people who hang out at Eastern Market, clipboards in hand. When you walk past they say, "Do you have 2 minutes to save children?" If you say no, well then, what a schmuck! So people get sucked in.
How the hell can anyone save children in two minutes? For heaven's sake.
UHH...that CHICKEN is a DUCK!
TWELVE THOUSAND smack-a-roos has that QUACK-a-roo sittin' pretty!
Love the duck and your header! Happy Thursday!
...anyone who would give 12,000 smackaroos to a baby chick deserves to get suckered into giving it to a duck instead, or even someone in a chicken suit, or even a chick...really gotta be careful who you're giving your money to these days, 90% of everything is a scam....and if you actually do send someone some money then Watch Out! you're on their list and they'll NEver EveR stop calling you.
LOL ~~ loved this one!
If it quacks like a chicken it might be a duck! hehe!
Duck or chicken? Chicken or Duck?..It's still really funny and a great post.
Uh... Well, okay then!
yeah you gotta love those calls...right?
Now that I am on the do not call list I get no calls!
Haha ah the irony of posting a duck! Do you know cricket? Out for a duck means that you're bowled out without scoring a run. . .
Man you are a hoot. I have to say, your poetry leaves me confused but every now and then you make sense. It's illegal to cold call over here unless you're a charity or member of parliament but I get a shit load of charity calls. . .costs me a fortune after I fall for the "Make a Wish" sob story of some little nose picker who's had a balloon flight . . yeh! Fork it out, give them my credit card details . .I need a fluffy duck and I'm not talking baby quackers
quack, quack
peep, peep
the beak on that little chick HAS to be false, right?
