Somebody on a farm?? We have feral peacocks roaming the suburbs of the Tampa Bay area. They are big and loud and mean like free ranging alarm systems. Nobody messes with them.

A science fiction writer (maybe Heinlein) postulated a voter qualification test. A citizen who wished to vote would step into the booth, there to be confronted with a quadratic equation to solve before casting the ballot. Turn around and leave upon seeing the equation - OK. Solve the equation and a ballot appears to allow the citizen to vote. Attempt to solve the equation but fail - Poof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmidt Meister Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 On June 17, 1775, British General Thomas Gage lands his troops on the Charlestown Peninsula overlooking Boston, Massachusetts, and leads them against Breed’s Hill, a fortified American position just below Bunker Hill, on June 17, 1775. As the British advanced in columns against the Americans, American General William Prescott reportedly told his men, “Don’t one of you fire until you see the whites of their eyes!” When the Redcoats were within 40 yards, the Americans let loose with a lethal barrage of musket fire, throwing the British into retreat. After reforming his lines, Gage attacked again, with much the same result. Prescott’s men were now low on ammunition, though, and when Gage led his men up the hill for a third time, they reached the redoubts and engaged the Americans in hand-to-hand combat. The outnumbered Americans were forced to retreat. However, by the end of the engagement, the Patriots’ gunfire had cut down nearly 1,000 enemy troops, including 92 officers. Of the 370 Patriots who fell, most were struck while in retreat. The British had won the so-called Battle of Bunker Hill, and Breed’s Hill and the Charlestown Peninsula fell firmly under British control. Despite losing their strategic positions, the battle was a morale-builder for the Americans, convincing them that patriotic dedication could overcome superior British military might. The British entered the Battle of Bunker Hill overconfident. Had they merely guarded Charlestown Neck, they could have isolated the Patriots with little loss of life. Instead, Gage had chosen to try to wipe out the Yankees by marching 2,400 men into a frontal assault on the Patriots’ well-defended position on top of the hill. The British would never make the same mistake again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody on a farm?? I used to raise several breeds of peacocks. They are mostly sold to collectors. They are NOT a worthwhile investment for eggs or meat and their only value is in their looks/rareness. I was lucky enough to get in with a breeding trio of cameos right when their popularity was starting, but I raised blues, greens, pieds, whites, chocolates and others. I had to sell them and all my chickens, turkeys, guineas, and other assorted birds when I took the job I have now. I do phlebotomy and tissue sampling for a major poultry processor. I am, by contract, not allowed to own or visit other places that raise poultry, other than farms that contract to my employers to avoid the possibility of spreading avian diseases.
