>From what I was told of 'that' particulear war was there was too much alcohol on
the butchers part and after a couple of swings the poor creature managed to give
up the ghost. People in the area wern't too keen on hearing the animal's screams
as it was being slaughtered. I think it could be a useful class if we could do
it off site. I would give 'city folks' a new insight on just what it takes to
get the bacon on the table in the morning.
