Police in Winona say a smelly spill caused at least five traffic accidents. A truck spilled a load of apparent chicken renderings while traveling on a street Thursday. The contents covered an eight-block area and ended up on - or inside - many vehicles parked along the street.
The slippery pavement caused at least four rear-end collisions between vehicles unable to stop at intersections. A moped also tipped over because of the road conditions.
No injuries are reported.
Police are trying to locate the truck. Deputy Winona Police Chief Paul Bostrack says it's believed the truck may have been hauling the load out of Arcadia, Wis., where a chicken processing plant is located.

I hate it when that happens
In other news, 15 of the accident victims were trampled to death by the onrush of Personal Injury attorneys responding to the police scanner reports of a "slip & fall" accident. Eyewitness reports say the unruly but well-dressed mob broke around the corner in full gallop and could not stop before they too encountered the ofal-covered patch of pavement. "Briefcases were flying through the air like one of those TV commercials," one witness exclaimed, "it was really quite comical - as long as you were up-wind."
But none of the latter really happened ... but it could.
Who needs Chinese poultry renderings when we can produce our own and provide jobs for more illegal Hispanics at the same time?
oooooooo!
“oooooooo!”
I couldn’t have said it better myself. ;-)
Winona may be a little goofy, but she sure looks good in a strapless dress.
She’s named after Winona, Minnesota, btw, in case anyone wasn’t aware of that. Apparently she was born there but her parents moved away shortly thereafter.
