A stray Emu was found wandering the San Diego suburbs and no one seems to know where he came from

Whatever they want to?

😁

Yeah, they’re supposed to be pretty good eating, and some say their oil is good for arthritis.

[Salamander]

Geeze.

No wonder they’re cranky.

When I was a kid growing up in northern Mississippi, we got our TV from Memphis. They had a Saturday morning TV show for kids that had an Emu puppet..............

"What do emus eat?........................"

Anything on the ground. Seeds, leaves, bugs, mice, grubs, fruits, lizards, gravel,....etc.... I think that's an omnivore.

Ask for permission to use the old 12 gauge. Or just use SSS rules.

He’s the emuji that tried to get away.

"An emu with injuries to their neck and right wing is safe at our Escondido Campus this morning."

Apparently, the emu has chosen it's pronouns as they/them/their. Or alternatively, there were multiple emus with the same injury.

They taste like dark meat turkey. I found the meat to taste exactly like Guinea Hens only less tough. In American markets I’ve never seen any of their meat being sold that wasn’t ground up.

the guy I posted was Rod Hull and his amazing emu. I first saw his act in the late 70s on a Saturday morning kids’ show called the hudson brothers.

I kinda like them but they overdo them...............

They aren't as bad as the Progressive ads...

You question reality.

This is different how?

[smokingfrog]

Best cooked sous vide or slow-cooked in a crockpot or pressure cooker.
Also wonderful smoked.

[Captain Peter Blood]

I hate both company ads. Probably hate Flo more Limu.

[crusty old prospector]

What about the new Jake from State Farm?

Flo is way past her best by date.

She stopped being funny years ago.

All these insurance companies are a big scam

We had that same problem in my county with donkeys. All the younger farmers and ranchers thought it was cool to own a couple. Then, a couple of donkeys turned into four, then eight, then they started finding ways of getting through the fences, and pretty soon we had donkeys running rampant all over the county. Nobody wanted to claim them, either. Since nobody claimed it, I have a feeling the same thing happened with that emu.
