It's the Groaner of the Week!!!!!!!!!

My dear, sweet friend Alice of My Wintersong (stop by and visit) sent along one of the most out-freakin'-standing groooooooaaaaaaaannnnnssss I've heard in a long time!!!! I think y'all will add your hearty agreement . . . once y'all get off the floor or wipe off your computer screen -- not to mention the tears -- or all of the above!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica? Where did they go? The penguin is a very ritualistic bird that lives an extremely ordered and complex life. In fact the penguin is very committed to its family, will mate for life and maintain a form of compassionate contact with its offspring throughout its life.

If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into and buried. The male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave. Then they . . . .

. . . kick him in the ice hole.


But wait! That's not all!! As they kick they sing this song:

"Freeze a jolly good fellow!!!!"
"Freeze a jolly good fellow!!!!"

If y'all aren't laughing and groooaaannning until it hurts, I recommend y'all see your doc and have your funny bone checked!!!!!!!

Thanks, Alice!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Blogging!!!!!!!!!
