Corporations Craziness

Sadly, you're unlikely to hear much from me until after my Corporations exam on Monday morning. I'm afraid that I'm barely aware of the rules for mergers, and am thinking that poison pills are what bad law students who haven't studied hard enough take in order to avoid shame and ignominy.

But in the meantime, I leave you with the strangest thing I've seen lately. I sent this to Heidi, thinking that our resident chicken-obsessiveenthusiast might enjoy it. Now, I give you: The Poultry Internet. (Quicktime Required)

From your friends at MXR labs.

UPDATE Most disturbing response I've received thus far to the Internet Poultry site: "Cool. Are they making one of those for boyfriends?"

Just to make it clear, by the way, I think the technology involved here is fun, but it's a chronically bad idea. A human isn't going to get much joy out of stroking a plastic chicken, and the whole "remote petting" thing is likely to scare the hell out of the poor bird.

Do you have some poison pills I can borrow? One of the Yin Bloggers is out to get me this semester...among other professor types...
Maybe that's my problem. I don't have enough "poultry friends."
"Cool. Are they making one of those for boyfriends?" Well, for the long-distance relationship...
