the colnel's secret

so, as i was watching a commercial for KFC which talks about the "chicken capital USA" which reminds me of a kind of funny story.

so, colonel harland sanders used to live in mississauga, ontario. (perhaps the chicken capital USA is further north than people think)

anyway, he lived in mississauga when my mum was a teenager. she said she used to go to the movies and he'd be in line, and he'd look just like you picture him. white suit, black tie, big black glasses, i'm pretty sure he even had his walking stick.

i don't know, it's just such a funny image, the kentucky fried chicken colonel sanders standing in line waiting to buy a ticket to the early show, all decked out in what i think of as his 'costume'

anyway, just thought i'd share.
