FRIED CHICKEN LIPS

 

     Ever had any?  Of course not….because they don’t exist!  I saw them advertised once at a little café in E. Oklahoma.  I thought it was a hoot.  They also had an advertisement for “FREE ICE CREAM...tomorrow”.  It was an attention getter for sure.  Made me look!  Gave us all something to talk about, that’s what it was there for, cause we all know there’s no such thing as chicken lips and tomorrow when you show up for your free ice cream, it’ll still say…tomorrow.  One thing doesn’t exist and the other exists on a day that will never come.  Pretty good method of advertisement don’t ya think?  You get everyone’s attention, cause a lot of commotion and conversation, create some excitement and all the while don’t have to produce ANY OF IT! 

     Seems to me, this presidential administration has done pretty much the same thing, promised things that either don’t exist or can’t be produced within the confines of a free nation.  The advertising was done excellently.  People have been stirred to an emotional frenzy.  Expectancy for the “free ice cream” is at an all time high….and the fried chicken lips…..?!!  Well….that REALLY caused quite a stir, amongst even the most educated of folks.  Reasoning is….if they’re advertising it….it MUST exist!  We don’t need to be so brass as to think the product must FIRST be delivered!  Advertisement alone is proof enough!  And God help the poor soul that has the mental capacity to think for himself, along with the guts to take the microphone and actually QUESTION the existence of chicken lips!  He’s immediately brought under a barrage of cruel attacks and harsh jokes aimed at discouraging ANYONE from thinking for themselves while in the company of such broader minded people of higher intellect.

     The promise of fried chicken lips and free ice cream was an attention getter for sure, but I just didn’t think America would actually buy into it.  I was wrong…we bought it…lock, stock and barrel.  It sure looks like we’ll be paying for a product that can never be delivered as well as not even knowing at this point just what kind of price America has actually signed up for.  Now don’t get ticked at this magazine for what I’m saying…this is my opinion I’m voicing, not necessarily theirs.  We DO still have the right to voice our opinions ya know, and we’d better exercise that right while we still can! 

     I don’t know about you, but even though I can enjoy the humor behind the fantasy of fried chicken lips, when it comes down to actually eating, just give me some plain ole beef and potatoes…an occasional yard bird…deer meat is good…ever had squirrel chili?  I’m just saying I want the REAL STUFF.  I saw a bumper sticker the other day that basically expresses my opinion:  “Give me my guns, my job and my money and you can keep the change!”
