Woman does 'mouth-to-beak' to save chicken
Associated Press
ARKADELPHIA, Ark. - Sometimes a chicken does have lips, just not her own. Marian Morris saved her brother's exotic chicken, Boo Boo, by administering "mouth-to-beak" resuscitation on the fowl after it was found floating face down in the family's pond.
Morris, a retired nurse, said she hadn't had any practice with CPR in years, but that she was interested to see if she "still had it."
"I breathed into its beak, and its dad-gum eyes popped open," Morris said. "I breathed into its beak again, and its eyes popped open again. "I said, 'I think this chicken's alive now. Keep it warm.'"
Morris said she was pleased to find that the bird she saved was an "exotic," and not just an ordinary chicken.
The chicken is called Boo Boo, because she is easily frightened. The family thought Boo Boo was startled and flopped into the pond

I agree wholeheartedly, though I love Jimmy Carter. It was painful to watch the Paul Wellstone (and Sheila, and daughter, who was one of our alums) memorial, live.
Ohhh, Walter Mondale could be my senator right now, if it weren't for that. I have a political placard that I saved bc it was for Walter Mondale but has a picture of Paul Wellstone. Thought it might be worth money some day.
Sounds like that chicken should have been removed from the evolutionary chain long ago.
I've been watching George Sr. at different events (including the funeral, and I do agree Tom about the politics) but, I think ElderBush has a crush on Bill Clinton! His eyes light up like a 1,000 points...I bet George Jr. is getting jealous.
The poor chicken thought she saw Dick Cheney over the hedge. She needn't have worried - no lawyers around.
By the way, "Arkadelphia" means "City of Arkansas love" which might have something to do with the bulging eyes.
