This is unbelievable. 

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The mystery of Portland's pink chickens is solved.

Multnomah County Animal Services says the birds' owner told the agency he used food coloring, beet juice and Kool-Aid to dye the two birds, then released them to "make people smile."

Owner Bruce Whitman of Portland says the prank succeeded beyond his wildest hopes. In his words, "I didn't expect to get this many people to smile."

Apparently, many people did not realize that the chickens had been dyed. What did they think happened? It was an Easter Miracle?

In other ridiculous news, Ted Cruz is running for President. Did anyone not know that? The only truly amazing thing is that Cruz is the first Hispanic senator ever elected in Texas. 

Hispanic[edit]   (From Wikipedia)

As of 2010, 45% of Texas residents had Hispanic ancestry; these include recent immigrants from Mexico, Central America, and South America, as well as Tejanos, whose ancestors have lived in Texas as early as the 1700s. 

45%!? And he's the first Hispanic senator ever??? This asshole?

And lastly; Memo to Indiana - Fuck You. My friend Laura posted "Boycott Indiana!" on Facebook. Too late, my dear. I've been boycotting it ever since I drove through it on Route 64 in 2001. Businesses in Indiana can now refuse to serve people that they believe to be gay because of religious reasons. Detractors of the legislation fear it will hurt tourism. Tourism? Really? With the exception of the Indianapolis 500 and the Final Four, I have never heard of anyone going to Indiana for tourism. I see even less reason for gay couples to choose Indiana as a vacation spot (it is NOT on my sister's wish list.) Note: BusinessInsider.com ranks Indiana's economy as 33rd.

Now I'm free
