Chicken Kidnapped!
October 28, 2006

Bill's pet chicken has just been kidnapped. He still didn't know when this picture was taken. He should have figured it out when he looked in the mirror ... but no!
On Sunday morning, Oct 29 this clever ransom note was discovered in Bill's church mailbox

That night the chicken was recovered at Freddy's after Bill met the ranson demands!

The kidnappers, the kidnapped, and the victim:
Hannah, Brooke, Chicken, Bill, Becky
Interview with Kidnap Victim
Interviewer: Mr. Chicken, we are so glad to see you are home safe and sound. Can you tell us about your ordeal?
Chicken: It was horrible! I was just hanging around (in Bill’s van) at the FMBC Fall Block Party when three hoodlums burst in and nabbed me. They kept mumbling something like, “I can’t believe Bill fell for that. He just handed us the key.”
Interviewer: Three of them, huh? Then what happened?
Chicken: Well, next thing I knew they stuffed me in a bag. It was really dark in there, too. I thought I was chicken salad for sure!
Interviewer: Can you describe the three culprits?
Chicken: Well, I couldn’t see much from the bag, but I know they were part of some unsavory group call MBY. I know they were girls, too …lots of giggling and stuff like that. Also, I heard them talking about stamping butterflies on the ransom note.
Interviewer: Yes, the ransom note. We have recovered the note and it is available to the public on this site. Did the note lead to your release?
Chicken: Yes! Bill was so frantic to get me back that he bought ice cream for those kidnappers just as they had demanded! After they had their fill of Freddy’s custard, they released me. And would you believe no one even offered me a bite of custard!!!
