56 Bird Flu Strikes Egypt

bird flu hits egyptOK, I know this isn’t funny. And I am worried: worried for the people with pigeon houses on their roofs, worried for the people with chickens in the stairs, worried for the chicken farmers and the chicken slaughterers and their neighbors, worried enough for myself that I’ve stopped eating chicken. This is one of those crowded countries, like China, where people live right on top of their birds. And I do feel for the guy who sadly told me he was slaughtering all his pigeons and not eating them. But I can’t help but laugh as I look at this (helpful) image, courtesy of the Egyptian State Information Service.

Beware the fiendish fowl…
