I am sitting out in the shop because I can actually breathe out here in the cooler air. My wife let her chicks out to free range for a while and the rooster came over to the cat door in the shop and stuck his head in and crowed at me. He did it several times. Every time I grabbed my phone to take his picture he went running off across the year.
Silly bird.

Coffee
America's favorite legal stimulant is so prevalent that everyone forgets it's a drug. Our collective amnesia likely stems from the fact that a Starbucks tall coffee (12 oz.) contains 260 mg of caffeine, and caffeine intoxication kicks in at 250 mg. It's true, working citizens--we all go to work stoned! Medically stoned!
The DownsideLest you think that you're a rebel for going to the office hopped up on java, know that you're still not as tough as the guy who steals copy paper. Severe, deleterious caffeine intoxication sets in at 500 mg, so you're going to have to slam a black venti with a Red Bull chaser to get properly wasted.
Once you've risen to coffee-high nirvana, you'll soon plummet to coffee-high hell. Symptoms of excessive caffeine usage include hallucinations, diarrhea, convulsions, vomiting and "confusion" (once that 12th latte has you convulsing, vomiting and pooping all over your local Starbucks, you're probably not going to be the only one who'll be suffering from confusion in the room).
Fun Fact
Voltaire drank approximately 50 to 70 cups of coffee a day for inspiration. This level of caffeine intake is not recommended unless you happen to be a French Enlightenment philosopher.

WIlliam, our rooster does goofy stuff like that too. He likes to sit on the railing right outside where the door is to the dog run and crow into the house. Like you say, silly bird.

Well when your brain is the size of a pea, you tend to do stupid things.

LOL no coffee intoxication - although I did put a little whisky in a couple of cups; helps with the cough, that is my story and I am sticking to it.
That is my wifes prized Cornish/ Taiwanese cross rooster so no chicken soup. We are hoping it adds some meat to future chicks.
