So many delicious birds.  I assume that's your point.
They may be delicious, but they were likely raised in factory boxes that hardly allowed them room to wiggle.  Think of being in solitary confinement in a Supermax prison from birth to execution day...
Imagination + discipline = creativity

Quote"Why are the Americans more concerned than us?" said Joseph Mabuwa, a 33-year-old father-of-two cleaning his car in the center of the capital. "We never hear them speak out when villagers are killed by lions and elephants in Hwange."

Surely, the Lowest Point in Human History Was.... sending the Winter Olympics to "a rather dry, monsoon-influenced humid continental climate":

QuoteWhen Oslo, Norway, and Krakow, Poland, and Stockholm all pull out of the bidding for reasons similar to Boston's; when voters in St. Moritz, Switzerland, and Munich reject proposed Olympic bids for reasons similar to Boston's; and when no one in North America bothers to apply, you end up with – Beijing.

If they don't reform, they'll eventually end up in even lower places. Good riddance IMO.

Jim and Tammy who? Never heard of them.  ::)
Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.
