Speaking of killing chickens, I got to be severely traumatized one week when I was six years old and our family was on vacation and visiting both sets of grandparents. They all raised chickens. At my grandmother's place she declared we should have some fried chicken for dinner and that my siblings and I needed to see how to kill a chicken. Life-skills and all that. She pulls one out of the coop, grabs it by the neck/head and spins it around like a 90 mph underhand softball pitch. The breaking of the neck was audible. From deciding to have chicken for dinner to being prepped that chicken lived only 30 seconds more. That same week, same vacation we go to the grandparent's place on my father's side. "Let's have some fried chicken for dinner!" I was mortified. His method was to chop the head off. Axe, chopping block, hold it down. With the head off he let it run around, headless, until it fell over; a good 20-30 seconds. He would chuckle a bit and so would all of the adults. My siblings and I were just speechless. All in all though, they were very tasty chickens.
