With Valentine’s Day looming, now might be the time to take an assertive approach to one’s love life…if, at least, you’re a dude looking for a chick. Do you think this local farm & feed store can guarantee chick-delivery by Wednesday?

Personally, it was the ‘Feeds and needs’ that caught my eye! We all want good feeds. And needs? Well where would I start?

I’ve always thought a “chick” was a woman with nothing in her head. Never wanted one of those! I’ve come to realize in my old age there really are no women with nothing in their heads. Sometimes you just have to look harder.

ROFL! :^)
Reminds of of that “King of the Hill” episode where Hank was in an anger management course. When the instructor was giving out their certificates of completion, he played jokes on them all as a final test to see if they could control their anger. He handed Chuck Mangione his certificate, and the musician smashed his horn over the guy’s head declaring, “Chick Mangione? I’m not a chick; I’m a dude!”

I guess everyone notices different things. The no parking sign appears to be one of those “dog in the manger” things where even when the owner has no use for the parking lot, he/she wants no one else on it.
Then, again, maybe there are perfectly valid reasons for wanting to reserve sections of the earth even when you don’t need them.

Actually, maybe “feeds & needs” perfectly describes dating, love, & Valentine’s Day, what with the whole “dinner & a movie” approach to finding (“ordering”?) love. I’m just loving the thought of ordering your chicks NOW, presumably while the getting’s good.
Johnny, I’ve not seen that particular King of the Hill episode, but I recall Mangione appearing in several other episodes. Isn’t he from Texas? That would explain his frequent cameos.
And Gerry, I think (?) that No Parking sign has to do with the semi trucks who deliver the “feeds” at “Feeds & Needs.” If cars are parked in the lot overnight, the trucks can’t make deliveries. (And that’s the sort of thing I would notice since my Dad was a truck-driver!)

I’ll see if I can find that scene — the way he belts his instructor suddenly is HIGH-LARIOUS.

I just spotted this picture on the Moleskinerie website and I immediately thought – Ooo, that looks like NH! I must be pretty homesick if a picture of a Blue Seal sign in grey and dismal February makes me long for NH. Don’t you love the sound of all the baby chicks in the feed store in the spring?
