I really wanted to say, "I'm sorta impressed, then," but I was good and just said, "Well, you may have read it on the computer, but I read that a three-ton chicken is going to win the election, and I don't believe that either."
Ah, my state... We may be at the bottom of the barrel, but don't tell us about it - that's offensive!
Shalom, y'all!
