SUBJ: Tastes Like Chicken
A man is caught, by a forest ranger, sitting at a makeshift
campfire, and, to the ranger's horror, eating a bald eagle. The
man is consequently jailed for the crime. On the day of his
trail, the conversation goes something like this:
JUDGE: "Do you know that eating a bald eagle is a federal
offense?"
MAN: "Yes I do. But if you let me argue my case, I'll
explain what happened."
JUDGE: "Proceed."
MAN: "I got lost in the woods. I hadn't had anything to eat
for two weeks. I was so hungry. Next thing I see is a Bald Eagle
swooping down at the lake for some fish. I knew that if I
followed the Eagle I could maybe steal the fish. I caught up with
the eagle who lighted upon a tree stump to eat the fish. I threw
a stone toward the eagle hoping he would drop the fish and fly
away. Unfortunately, in my weakened condition, my aim was off,
and the rock hit the eagle squarely on his poor little head, and
killed it. I thought long and hard about what had happened, but
figured that since I'd killed it, I might as well eat it, since
it would be more disgraceful to let it rot on the ground.
"And that was when the good ranger found me."
JUDGE: "The court will recess while we consider your
testimony."
Fifteen minutes later ...
JUDGE: "Due to the extreme circumstance you were under and
because you didn't intend to kill the eagle, the court will
dismiss the charges."
The judge then leans over the bench and whispers, "If you
don't mind my asking, what does a bald eagle taste like?"
MAN: "Well your honor, it is hard to explain. The best I can
describe is it's somewhere between a California Condor and a
Spotted Owl."
