My room-mate the chicken wire chicken.
I can't say my chicken wire chicken was a good roommate. Charitable... Maybe, But not in a good way, it was more of a passive aggressive tactical maneuver in his game of top rooster. Roosters in general can be quiet aggressive, but chicken wire roosters bring a new level of ingenuity - a wiry hard as metal genius at manipulating the pecking order.
I have to say that I showed up with nothing, and he let me use almost all of his possessions, of course I always regretted it later, but I was better for it in the end. Here is a few pictures of my time with chicken wire chicken.
Himself
His steam powered velocipede. I used this quiet a bit, but never with out chicken. He would perch on the handle bars or my head, it was often very messy, and the velocipede was hot.
Chicken's chair - he had the idea that this was the best seat in the house. I sat in it once and was fine for the first hour, then started to get uncomfortable. Chicken came in and threw a fit when he saw me in it, I've come to believe that on some level, chicken's aren't that smart.

This is my old room and the chair chicken let me sit in. He hated this chair.
Chicken was a big Star wars fan and cherished this, his one and only painting. If I didn't look at it for at least an hour each day, chicken would get mad. You don't want a chicken wire chicken mad at you.

The 1782 battle of the Borg.

John Christian Schetky painted this wonderful depiction of the Borg invasion of 1782. Evidently the British Royal Navy's defense fleet was sank off of Spithead by the craftiest of Borg weapons - electrolysis.

Testing for the æther boundary in the Aérostat Fougueux

Jose Parra documented the first maneuvers of the flotte de dirigeables in 1799. Napoleon ordered a fleet of twenty three Aérostat's to be made at the Montrouge balloon yards - due to clerical error - the number produced was twenty six. With three more dirigeables than he needed for the 1805 invasion of the newly purchased American Louisiana territories, the extra were given a scientific mission of exploration. During the lengthy trip through the atmosphere the three ship fleet found that they could re-supply using the native flora and fauna of the the skies, and managed not to touch land for three years. News of their voyage (through carrier pigeon) reached the main fleet in low altitude maneuvers over the Mediterranean, and convinced the admiralty to finally issue the order for the American invasion. The flotte de dirigeables roamed the heavens in an indirect path towards their destination, living off the land, so to speak, and in the process causing the extinction of many aeronautical species. By 1810 the fleet had parked itself over the Louisiana territory waiting for the order to attack, which never came. Presumably the fleet had learned to harvest the skies without causing large scale ecological destruction, as the last communication from the flotilla occurred in 1825 via an ancient carrier pigeon.

They had Turkey.

I thinks there is something lost in the translation of Vasily Vereshchagin' Napping after attack on a Turkey.

This is Julie Heffernan's self portrait, of course she's dressed herself up a bit, but I can pick out a likeness.

Lord Nelson's bucket

Denis Dighton should've added Jane,Tarzan, and his Apemen up in the rigging. Then Lord Nelson's would have something to look at while dying, other than a bucket that's conspicuously unkicked.
