Introducing......

Mr. Crowe.... That is Russell Crowe, the Rooster. By overwhelming popular demand and thanks to Kathy for coming up with such a fun name. Bernie said it was very appropriate because supposedly Russell knits. So I went looking on the web and found this funny photo. I really doubt he does but we can all pretend. Anyone want to sign up to give him a lesson?

And in keeping with the reputation of his namesake, my "Mr. Crowe" has moved back in with the ladies. For days I have been trying to get a decent photo of him. Sorry, this is the best I have come up with. Chickens move really fast, especially when food is involved.

Lewis N. Cluck was a close second..... Thanks to all who voted. What a fun contest. Thanks to Kathy and all who entered their clever names!

I may need a new rooster soon. I've got one who should be named "Killer" instead of Plush...his time grows short as the gashes on my legs grow in number.

Can chickens be taught to knit, do ya think?

What a great name for your rooster. And, speaking of men knitting, check out my blog today to see a cowboy knitting while sitting on a horse.

I teach kids to knit in a very urban environment. Sometimes the boys are not sure if it's ok for them to knit. I have a photo of Russell Crowe with knitting needles on the door to my classroom.

Honestly, I don't care if he knits. He's tough and he's not afraid to be photographed as if he were knitting. For me, that's what I need. For a tough guy to advertise on my behalf that tough guys can knit if they want. Whether he makes a stitch or not, he already has furthered my cause.

(So there?)
