Crazy Relativescurvylittlegoth writes, "My Grandma is crazy, crazy mad. As well as regularly putting curses on us all, she once fell asleep in the armchair on a sunny afternoon, Barley Wine in one hand, Peter Stuyveson in the other, only to wake up several hours later to a Darth Vader sounding fireman. She thought she was in HELL as the smoke and flames billowed round her..."
Are any of your relatives this loopy?

A story on my dad, this time...As I mentioned, a good portion of my relatives are Canadian farmers. My grandfather moved to the US before Dad was born, but Dad spent a fair part of his childhood on one farm or another during the summers.
Apparently one day Dad and Cliff were so bored that they decided to go out and have some fun with the chickens. They pretended to be judges in a courtroom, accusing the chickens of various crimes. If they found the chicken to be guilty, Dad held the chicken on one end of a board that was propped up over a chunk of firewood, and Cliff jumped on the other end of the board to launch the miscreant skyward.
Apparently they had launched several of them before Dad got hold of a bird who had full intestines. I still think it was making an editorial statement about him as it emptied all over him...
