[Leica] IMG: Canning

[kcarney1 at cox.net (Ken Carney)]

I have a friend with a ranch, and sometimes when he has a light calf I will
buy a half or a quarter.  When the kids were little I would tell them the
animal's name, Agnes or some other fabricated name.  It didn't take them
long to catch on.  Whenever I had a pig processed it was always Arnold.

Yes :-(  I even hate killing the obnoxious surplus roosters we have around
here.  If you do eat meat, you should know that it does have a face.  We eat
meat about once a week or less.  A pig would last us a year.  I don't buy
meat from the supermarket.  We only eat what we raise. The ones that we
raise for meat are named Stewpot or Drumstick or Porkchop - as a reminder.
