    I just go outside with a tennis racket and chase away the geese... 0o'

    Just be aware - they can break your legs with their wings <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

    Are you sure you're not thinking of swans?

    I try to get those big <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tiny.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="::onos::" border="0" alt="tiny.gif" /> eggs. They are great on toast.

    A tad bit harder to get your hands on though. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/confused-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="???" border="0" alt="confused-fix.gif" />

    Even swans are not that powerful. Sure, getting swatted with their wings will hurt like crazy and quite possibly even cause some damage, but leg bones are some of the sturdiest in the human body.

    QFT

    There is an anecdote of some one getting hit by a swan and breaking their arm (much easier then a leg). But even there I am betting it was a kid or older woman (weaker bones) or it was the collar bone (most commonly broken bone in the body).


    On topic:
    So, how do they taste?

    I have never seen anything aside from chicken eggs sold state side, though I am sure I could get my hands on some if I wanted to...

    Hah, you think that's bad. In the future, 10 minutes after you eat an egg? Advertisements in your eyes. In your <i>brain</i>.

    Not only is that the coolest colour egg I've ever seen, I think adverts on the egg would be awesome.

    Because lord knows, when I'm making an omlette, all knowledge of TV scheduling goes out the window.

    Quite similar to chicken eggs really little bit stronger in taste but very tasty all the same <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" /> If you like chicken eggs tho you'll love.
