And here I was using a computer to "author" things. Now I know where I went wrong.

And sometimes a chicken sandwich is just a cigar.

Imagined behind the scenes:
The judge told him it would be all right.
He thought the judge said "I'll write" and punched him.
"Thirty days in/with the pen."
There. I authored something and just now put bbq on it.
What do I win?

Well of course the bun, at least, would be in the public dough main. And there are no royalties involved if it's not chicken à la king.

I was hoping is is a "chic sandwich". Just w typical chauvinistic dream.

Chick-fil-A uses the slogan We didn't invent the chicken, just the chicken sandwich. Dwarf House, CfA's predecessor, was founded in 1946. But there is at least one episode of The Great Gildersleeve from 1943 where the title character orders a chicken sandwich at Peavey's Drug Store.
Gildersleeve also had a barber named Floyd before Andy Griffith did.

I hereby announce that [pirate *] is now copyrighted by me! Disney, about those pirate movies you made with Mr. Depp? I'm thinking 30% gross revenue sounds like a fair offer.
I can use the proceeds to take the entire Blog family to Knotts Berry Farm (TM, all rights reserved).
