So the geese got lucky this Thanksgiving. Instead of baking a goose this year we baked two ducks. Now I’m full like a tick. Unfortunately we are now out of leftovers!
 
Despite my lobbying we had a poor pacifist turkey for Thanksgiving instead of slaughtering a fowl war goose!
 
Better stay out of China, they are now employing Police Geese.

I am. I'm happy with the kids on the lawn but the goose poop makes for messy play

I worked for a Navy fire department for several years. A common request was hosing goose poop off the front steps of the main admin building and the admirals entrance to the building. That admiral was instrumental in having our jobs elimiated and contracting with the city fire department. It warmed my heart when I found out the city fire department refused to come out and hose down goose poop.

Geese are mean bastards, but I must admit I like them for providing me with a vicarious FU to that admiral. Plus I'm something of a cranky bastard myself, so find a bit of kindred spirit with them.

Geese were traditionally used as guard animals as they largely feed themselves and they honk loudly at anything they're suspicious of. They were quite widely kept for this in medieval times - perhaps you could use watch-geese as an obstacle for low-level characters trying to break into a wizard's tower or some other location.

Donkeys were often used in the same way as they will yell loudly at anything that they're not familiar with. Once upon a time I had occasion to visit an acquaintance at a rehab centre in Italy. This was located in an old estate owned by some Cistercian monks near Piona, on the eastern shore of Lake Como. They had a watch donkey that would complain loudly about anyone coming down the road to the place.

You'll be first around the negotiating table when the reform comes.

Peacocks as well. Talk about frightening birds. That Navy base had them in addition to the geese.


and this just seems appropriate.

 
What has become of this place?!?

Nothing like a Goose pun war... they are like pillow fights. Everyone is throwing down.

Funny you should say that. I have a lovely goose feather pillow and I just got a goose feather duvet from Costco. The annoying thing about the duvet is that two covers and pillow case sets cost more than twice as much as the duvet did.
 
Good news, everybody! Rafael Chandler has gotten a retail distribution deal for his Pandemonio game, splatterpunk horror in a world not entirely unlike ours, other than the invasion of angels and devils.

He's clearly had to make a few "concessions" for the retail market, but I think it will be just as big a hit.

Almost got me there!

Chandler is one of those guys whose stuff might be too weird for my game table but I admire his creativity. Also a class act in our online interactions.

That goose is going to fuck those idiots up but I admire their dedication!

I was showing a home to a couple today, which backed onto a lake. It was a house that met all the their needs, and they loved it. Then a flock of geese landed in the backyard, and the woman's disgust for geese soured her on the house entirely.

Did it have a fence? After I put a fence up they decided my lawn was not nearly as cool.
