The Girl Around Town

By Natalie Cooper I watched the sun set from the window seat of the plane on my flight to Philadelphia last Friday evening.

It was the first time I saw the sun go down from the sky, and it was beautiful. The reds and oranges and pinks peaked through the clouds surrounding the plane as the plane trekked through them, shining light through the window and onto my face. I looked down at the ground below me. We were flying low enough to still see the landscape of the ground below—the highways and houses and open fields. And as the sun disappeared further and further down, the colors touched down on the open areas covered in patches of snow and reflected and dispersed around the areas like rings of light. Right then I noticed there was still snow on the ground up north.

It was cold by the time I got off the plane and out in the Philly night air. I could see my breath in front of me like smoke when I exhaled, waiting for my friend to pick me up at the terminal. As I sat in the back of my friend’s car on the way back to her house from the airport, I noticed Manayunk was still blanketed in snow. We parked a few blocks away from her house down a side street and began the walk there. After almost face planting on three separate occasions from stepping on patches of hidden ice, I got a little frustrated.

“I can’t believe you guys still have snow,” I said. “This is ridiculous.”

“How long have you been away from home?” my friend said. “It’s January in Philly. You should know we have snow and will still continue to get it. At least classes get cancelled.”

For the rest of the walk back to her house I remembered snow days at home as a kid. We didn’t get them too often every winter, but we got quite a few of them over the course of my childhood. And I remember most of them because it was a celebration—not only a day off from school, but also a day for pure playful bliss in the snow.

Most of these mornings started out the same way. I would wake up an extra hour early for school and look out the window and see snow covering the yard, the driveways, cars and sidewalks. Untouched snow. Then I’d look at the sky and see that more snow was continuing to fall. I’d get back in bed and wait another half hour for either my mom or dad to come in and tell me school’s been canceled. But as I got a little older, I got ahead of the game and took matters into my own hands. I couldn’t wait that long for news anymore. I went downstairs and turned on the TV to the local channel and long waited for the name of my school to appear on the bottom of the screen under snow closings.

I’d always be surprised when I’d see it, even though I knew school would be closed. I’d jump off the couch and wait for my mom to bring my brother’s and my snowsuits down from the attic. We’d spend a solid twenty minutes bundling up for the occasion. Those suits were double insulated and made equipped for long playing hours out in the cold weather. We’d put on three pairs of socks under our snow boots, gloves with each individual finger for building and hats and scarves to cover our heads and necks.

I remember one time in particular. My four siblings and I spent the whole morning building an igloo out in the front yard for our dog. We thought she’d be cold out there in the snow, without a coat and all. So we built her a little house, even though my parents argued that she really was only outside for maybe ten minutes at a time. But we didn’t care. That igloo was unbreakable. We got called in for lunch against our will, and when we emerged back outside, our two cousins were getting out of the car out front. It was time to go sledding.

We went up to Fifteenth Street to the beginning of the boardwalk. That was the best ramp on the whole boardwalk to slide down. It was the widest, and we liked to believe it was the steepest. We spent hours there together sliding down the same ramp the same way, but we had a ball. Even more so when our both our dads showed up to join. We stayed and watched the sun go down across the island over the bay, with all it’s pretty, crisp colors, before retiring back home for a late dinner, accompanied by hot chocolate and a family movie on the couch. I’d fall asleep on the couch, reliving the entire day’s activities in my head while simultaneously trying not to doze off. But I eventually would, and when I’d open my eyes the next morning, magically in my bed, I’d pray there’d be another snow day so I could continue the fun.

Look for my column every week when I’m . . .

At the session last week the Pastor asked Ole, who was approaching his 50th Wedding Anniversary, to take a few minutes and share some insight into how he had managed to stay married to the same woman all those years.

“Well, - Ole replied to the assembled husbands, - I’ve tried to treat her nice, spend money on her, but best of all I took her to Norway for the 20th Anniversary!” The Pastor responded, “Ole, you are an amazing inspiration to all the husbands here! Please tell us what you are planning for your wife for your 50th Anniversary?”

AT LAST: Once when the power went off at the elementary school, the cook couldn’t serve a hot meal in the cafeteria. She had to feed the children something so at the last minute she whipped up great stacks of peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches.

As one little boy filled his plate he said, “It’s about time. At last - a home cooked meal!”

Useless Information He really was a chicken running around with his head cut off.

The e-mail message seemed innocent enough. A reader simply asked “Ever heard of the story posted here at this link?” and offered a hyperlink to another web page. I clicked and came across a story that I was sure had to be pure fiction. The only problem is that the story appears to be totally true.

This is the story about Mike the chicken. Mike, of course, was not your ordinary chicken. No, not ordinary at all. You see, Mike was a headless chicken. If you want to be really specific, Mike was actually a headless Wyandotte rooster.

I should point out that Mike wasn’t always a headless bird. In fact, he was born 100% normal, complete with a head (most normal chickens have one of these) in Fruita, Colorado.

On September 10, 1945, Mike’s short five-and-a-half month life was about to take a turn for the worse. On this day, Mike received a death sentence. His owners, Lloyd and Clara Olsen, decided that it was time to slaughter a group of birds, some to sell and to prepare others for themselves. Out to the hen house they went…

Watch out Mike!

he soon came to be known, toured up and down the West Coast of the United States. Just six weeks after his beheading, Mike was featured in a Life magazine article and his fame grew. For just 25 cents, anyone could pay to get a look at Mike. At the height of his popularity, Mike was raking in a cool $4,500 per month, which was no small potatoes in those days. They probably would have thrown in his head as a bonus - it was stored in a canning jar and toured along with Mike. (Actually, a cat ate Mike’s head. Some other poor chicken’s head was pickled in the jar.)

And, if there was money to be made, there were also copycats. Other people in Mike’s hometown began to chop the heads off of their own chickens in an attempt to get in on the scheme. One copycat headless rooster was named Lucky and he managed to live for eleven days before bashing himself into a stovepipe and dying (Lucky wasn’t that lucky after all). Several other headless chickens lived for a couple of days.

So how was Mike able to survive? Scientists examined him and determined that Mr. Olsen had not done a very good job at chopping Mike’s head off. Most of the head was actually removed, but one ear remained intact. The slice actually missed the jugular vein and a clot prevented him from bleeding to death.

Apparently, most of a chicken’s reflex actions are located in the brain stem, which was also largely untouched. Mike was also examined by the officers of several humane societies and was declared to have been free from suffering.

Through his open esophagus, Mike was fed a mixture of ground up grain and water with your typical eyedropper. Little bits of gravel were dropped down his throat to help his gizzard grind up the food.

As you can probably imagine, Mr. Olsen was the one whacking the heads off while Clara plucked and cleaned the birds.

Bash! Down came the ax and off went Mike’s head.

Mike’s head was surely dead. Mike’s body was not.

Now I know what you are thinking - it is well known that chickens will run around frantically when their heads are chopped off. That’s probably where that old expression comes from. And, everyone knows that a headless chicken just can’t survive more than a few moments.

Apparently, Mike forgot to read the rulebook for playing the game of Life. His head may have been lying on the floor, but he had no problem standing up and strutting around as if nothing had actually happened. The next day, Mike was still flopping around, so Lloyd decided to feed him to see how long he could keep the bird alive. Day after day he continued to gain weight.

Mike could easily balance himself on the highest perches without falling. His crowing consisted of a gurgling sound made in his throat. Mike even attempted to preen his feathers with his nonexistent head (apparently he never noticed). It seems that Mike could do just about anything that any other chicken could do, if you exclude all of the functions of his head.

As I’m sure you can imagine, headless chickens are not an everyday event. In the tradition of that famous huckster Barnum, there was money to be made in A promoter by the name of Hope Wade came along and convinced 28 this|oddity.WildwoodMag.com Lloyd that Mike would be a big draw in the sideshow circuit. Miracle Mike, as

One serious problem that Mike commonly experienced was that he would start to choke on his own mucus. The Olsens came up with the simple solution of using a syringe to suck the mucus out. But, one day tragedy struck. Mike was traveling back home to Fruita and was roosting with the Olsens in their Phoenix motel room. They heard Mike choking in the middle of the night and quickly realized that they had left the syringe at the sideshow the day before. Miracle Mike was no more.

The exact date of Mike’s belated departure from this world was never recorded.

Years later, it was estimated, based on Lloyd’s information, that Miracle Mike died in March of 1947. Eighteen months living without a head could be considered a world’s record. Yet, Lloyd didn’t want to admit that he had accidentally killed the bird, so he claimed that he had sold the bird off. This little white lie is the reason that many of the stories printed about Mike claimed that he was still touring the country as late as 1949.

But wait, the story is not over! Mike actually has his own holiday! On May 17, 1999, Mike’s hometown of Fruita held the first “Mike the Headless Chicken Day” in honor of one of its most famous citizens. Some of the events included the 5K Run Like a Headless Chicken Race, egg tosses, Pin the Head on the Chicken, the Chicken Cluck-Off, and the classic Chicken Dance. The food offerings included - you guessed it - chicken, chicken salad, and the like. Let’s not forget the great game of Chicken Bingo in which the numbers were chosen by where chicken droppings fell on a numbered grid.

If you are interested, Mike the Headless Chicken Day is an annual event. As peculiar as it is to describe, it actually sounds like a great time. And it’s all done in celebration of the life of one lucky bird named Miracle Mike.

Useless? Useful? I’ll leave that for you to decide.
