Joe the Elder asks------do the ducks still have right of way ?

Never studied law in Pennsylvania myself, but I suspect that as is the
case here in Curdistan ducks, like any other pedestrians (I've
encountered exactly zero evidence in support of homocentricity) have
titular right of way pretty much everywhere in the nation.

On the other hand, there is a wealth of evidence supporting the
contention that "He/She/It had the right of way" could and should be
among the most common of descriptive epitaphs.

caveat peripator

waddling into the middle of a main thoroughfare from an alleyway is not
a right i'd recommend any pedestrian assert...

Precisely. Rights and wrongs are academic.....take any half dozen of
the folks (anthro, anser, or any other) you have righted or wronged at
one time or another and see how long it takes any of them to offer
forgiveness. The boneyards and barbecues are full to overflowing with
the insistent, the insensitive, the indiscriminate, the inattentive,
the intrepid and the idiots.

especially when such right
makes claim against a truck loaded with... uh ... loaded fishermen.

It's a stone cold fact that the greatest intellect and the most
stunning physical mesomorph in the land will ALWAYS lose in a kinetic
dispute with a Ford F-150.

jeff (though a difficult defense, i maintain it was a "darting duck",
suicidal.

A profoundly mitigating circumstance if ever there was one. Assisted
suicide may be reprehensible where the abettor is fully cognizant of
his role (in advance) and a participant of his own free will.....but
draftees must, I think, be held to a different and somewhat more
relaxed standard.

...and, um, from where do you think the duck dinner at the
hotel originates, eh?)

Ah, the old victim vis a vis entree conundrum. Alas, even here in
Cheeselandia (cf. mssrs. Gein and Dahmer) we have not yet fully come
to grips with this one to the extent of arriving at a widespread
consensus

who, personally, leans toward the common sense conclusion that "slow"
is more or less synonymous with "lunch."
