Why does this come to mind..? Poultry
Causes of pecking and cannibalism

Cannibalism is a prevalent problem in chicken and game bird flocks. It usually begins as simple pecking among the birds and escalates until it is out of control. There are many conditions that increase the likelihood that it will become a serious problem. The problem usually begins by innocent pecking during the establishment of a social order or by pulling of the feathers in certain cases. Some of the reasons for cannibalism are:

Crowding birds - Correct by increasing the amount of space available for each bird.
Provide plenty of feed and water - All birds should have access to feed and water at all times.
Keep light intensity low - Bright lighting increases bird activity and cannibalism.
Keep the house temperature comfortable - Hot house temperatures aggrivate birds and make them more irritable. ...... " would someone please turn down the lights and turn up the A/C !

this car was on ebay a year or so ago with the following description:
Year: 1978 Make: Porsche Model: 928 VIN: 9288200021 Stock Number:Mileage: 65,350 Transmission: Manual Engine: 8 - Cyl. Exterior Color: Red Interior Color: Tan Body Style: Coupe Title Status: Clear

Third lowest VIN still on the road, 21st car built! The mileage represented is the actual mileage of this vehicle. It is a very clean vehicle and rides and drives as expected. It has been thouroughly inspected by certified technicians. Sets on brand new tires, A/C blows cold, all electrical components function properly except the sunroof which needs a new motor. All body panels are straight and original, car appears to be a complete repaint, but is a very nice one. The overall condition of the paint is very good with only a few rock chips on the hood and the only inclusions shown in the photos. Interior is completely original, overall in good condition. Small tear in passenger side rear seat. Carpets and mats very good condition. Overall for its age and originality this vehicle is in very good condition, though it is not show quality. Low reserve below NADA value. I am relisting this vehicle due to the fact that the buyer was unable to complete transaction.

Item location: St Joseph, MO

I have quite a number of pictures if anyone wants to see them...
personally it ain't worth anywhere near what he thinks it is.. and it ISN"T the 21st 928, it's the 21st US spec 928... probably about the 100th 928

Nice car, fair price 'ay Chuck?

Seriously though, I sure like the phone dial rims. On my '82, our dentist 1st owner did not like them at all which is why (or at least one reason why) he picked a car with the Comp. Group and flat disc wheels.

"puter maxx" interior? I assume he means Peter Max.

Gives you some idea of the seller's age. And lack of knowledge - at least about 928s.

I have emailed back and forth with the guy, he is hopeless, he knows it is an early car, so he says he has turned down 12 and 15k offers, so 50 ain't it, plus get this, he didn't know what Excellence was... that was interesting, he asked what it was and where he could get a copy.

Basically, what he is saying is that he is in no hurry to sell. He might just be fishing to see, if anyone bites and makes him rich. Then he can buy the GTS he really wants...

Hey, if you were the #1 Mary Kay seller in your state last year you can probably afford it.
