Thank you all for the laughs! The argument about chickens vs. roosters and chewy vs. crunchy sure helped me de-stress a little!
My two-cents? Chickens are yummy when they're cooked up right-- which for me is a whole variety of ways! Whole, shoved full with fresh garlic, onion, sage, rosemary, thyme, chives from my garden, a little olive oil, lemon juice (particularly if it is fresh-squeezed), and some regular ol' white table wine-- all put into a crock pot/slow cooker until done. YUMMMMY! Mmmmm, and some peppery spices on the top to add some color and flavor.
Chicken.... YUM!

Perhaps we now know why that man-character is named "Casper?" He never had a chance, poor bloke.
