Back on the 28th of January, I commented on [the strange story](http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/uk/newsid_621000/621954.stm) of a murdered English chicken. [CNN has just now picked up](http://www.cnn.com/2000/WORLD/europe/02/16/bc.britain.fowl.ap/) on the story (oh yeah... I scooped CNN by 21 days!). They've added a few details, like the fact that the chicken used to perch up in a local tavern and relieve itself wherever it pleased.
