LIFE AS THE OBJECT OF A ROOSTER'S DEVOTION IS NOTHING TO CROW ABOUT
Joan Ackermann-Blount
May 23, 1983
I used to think that the last thing in the world I'd ever want to do was watch a cockfight. Now I realize that the last thing in the world I'd ever want to do is be in one. I came to this realization because these days every time I walk out the door I find myself in just such a fight.
The good side of my new relationship with Jack is that he has been crowing unceasingly since the advent of warm weather. He also goes to bed quite early, around 4 p.m., which frees me to leave the house without my broom in the late afternoons and evenings. And, although cockfighting is the last thing I want to be involved in, at least we have no audience cheering and placing bets.
