  Reinhold;

  Yu half outdone yourself!
  When you have an IPO, Let me know, I can sell eggs to make my initial investment

  Maybe I should buy some chicken wire for my backyard, in anticipation for training camp for the chickens to walk in single file!

  How many chickens should one take on the trail, can we mail chickens thru the USPS... Ok Mom, send 2 chickens in the flate rate box so I can make it to Stehekin! 

  p.s. do you put chicken feed on the trail to get them to walk down it?

  -Mountain Goat-
  Chicken Soup, Chicken soufley, chicken chowder, chicken all a king, chicken and eggs, scrambled chicken and poached eggs, ect...

I am so excited to learn that Switchback will be demonstrating sub-extremeultra light gear including dehydrated water at the upcoming PCTA trail fest.I have been talking about dehydrated water for years but my backpackingfriends have always poo-pooed the idea.I may join Switchback and demonstrate my revolutionary ultra light conceptthat I have dreaming about for years.      Yes, Switchback and I,  side byside,  revolutionizing ultra light backpacking      We will be the hit of the show............  We will be the heroes ofthe ultra light movement.On extended hikes the heaviest items in the pack are food and water.  Ifthere was only a way to eliminate thatweight...............................HOW???...........................................CHICKENS ON A LEASH.........................THAT'SHOW!!!...............I hear some snickering in the background..........Hey, you guys, think
 aboutit.............Seriously,food that walks,  what's wrong with that?        Chickens lay eggs, right?So every morning, you have fresh eggs.   Every evening, you stick a chickenin the pot.EGGS & MEAT - high in protein - just what a weary hiker needs.Are you guys starting to see the picture?  ................There ismore...........At night, you tie the chickens to a tree and if a bear invades yourcampsite, the chickens clucking will awaken you so that you can scare offthe bear.You will not need a bear canister because your food walks on its own.  (Besides, chickens don't do so well in a bearcanister.)....................There is more yet.........If you get caught ina blizzard,  you stick the chickens in the sleeping bag with you to keep youwarm......Chickens generate lots of heat.      Are you guys finally gettingthe picture?Food that walks,  bear alarm,  insulation  and it all walks.   What's wrongwith
 that?Can you imagine how light the pack will be especially if used in conjunctionwith Switchback's dehydrated water.With an ultra light system like that, you guys could break every record onthe books.THIS IS DYNAMITE.      I bet this will sell like hot cakes.  Hmmmmm,  let mesee,  maybe I should market this concept.  I bet investors will line uparound the block to get in on the ground floor.   Or maybe, if investorresponse is slow,  I should call Merrill Lynch about floating an IPO.I can see it already -  SWITCHBACK & REINHOLD  (ultra light systems for allyour backpacking needs)   Symbol SR  lighting up the NY stock exchange.This has to be planned just right so that all the pieces are in place whenthis hits the market.Let me see now......the chickens need to be trained to walk in a singlefile,  you know, military style.  You can't have a bunch of undisciplinedchickens running all over the place.Maybe that's where
 GROUND POUNDER BILL can come in.  He is an ex- Marine.He can train the chickens.......Marines are known for their strictdiscipline.GOOD.........I think I have the management team in place.I will be the chief executive officer.Switchback will be the marketing director. ( He's widely known in thebackpacker community.Ground Pounder Bill will be in charge of training and product qualitycontrol.Yes..........This will be a huge success because the secret to happybackpacker is a light pack and a full belly........We must move forwardswiftly so the first platoon of Ground Pounder Bill  trained chickens willbe available in time for the class of 2006I'M SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS......I CAN'T SLEEP........I'M LIKE A KID IN ACANDY STORE                                See all you chicken pluckers at the kickoff.JMT ReinholdYour chicken loving, gram counting trail companion & venture capitalist
