Geese are getting fat

What do you mean, the Geese are getting fat?

What for?

In any case I'm not a goose, I'm a duck.

And I'm thin.

Very very thin.

Can I have some bread, pleeeease. Pretty pleeeease.

Pleading

Down at the lake late this afternoon. This duck (not a goose, okay), thought he was in danger of starving to death. His beak was resting on my knee, and those eyes were begging for food. So he got it, in reward for being such a good model.

Merry Christmas everyone, wherever in the world you may be. Ours is nearly over, just as it's beginning for many of you "up north".
