Apropos of nothing political…
…here\’s a story about fowl…er, foul play you won\’t soon forget.
From Nina Golgowski\’s article in today\’s New York Daily News:
A Kentucky grandmother says she fought off a crazed woman who was strangling her with a bra by bashing her in the head with a ceramic chicken.
Patricia Leece, 61, now says that chicken likely saved her life.
Unknown to her at the time, police said 31-year-old Ashley Sies had been going door-to-door carrying out the same wild behavior while hoping someone would let her in.
Police said she repeatedly hit Leece, ripped out a clump of her hair, and then lethally wrapped her bra around the grandmother\’s neck.
“She choked me down and we fought for a good 15 to 20 minutes. Finally I saw one of my (ceramic) chickens on the floor so I picked it up and started bashing her on the head with it,” she recalled.
With Sies knocked out on the ground she said she called police and then hid in her bathroom.
Would you like to see the hero of this story? Ok, here it is:
I\’m not exactly sure to go with this, other than to point out that it just goes to prove that old adage, “the ceramic chicken is mightier than the bra” (I admit the adage is only one minute old, but that\’s old too).
Ok, back to politics, where, comparatively speaking, there are days when being bashed (or is that cold-cocked) with a ceramic chicken would be the best thing that taxpayers could hope for.
