Thank you to my friend Kevin Wood for this post! If you've never stood in front of a group of professional businesspeople holding a rubber chicken by the neck, you haven't lived! LOL

Mike Jones, Tucson Lender, inducted into BNI Thomas Morgan Professional Partner's Chapter November 26th, 2008

Mike Jones seen here holding the famous PP Chicken!

Last Wednesday at the Taco Bron on Tanque Verde, the BNI Thomas Morgan Professional Partners Chapter inducted their newest member. Accepting this honored tradition in style, Mike had it making sounds we've never heard before while reciting the Code of Ethics.

Mike is a tremendous networker. He's always looking for ways to help people whether on the Rain or out on the streets. Mike brings an ability to make everyone feel at ease and important. In addition, his past business experience will be an excellent resource along with his encouraging attitude. He will be a huge asset to an already strong group of business professionals. Welcome Jonesy!

Mike: Well, that ole' rubber chicken certainly got my attention. We need humor these days and I'll take it any way I can get it.

Donna,

I'm happy to provide entertainment at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately all we had was a rubber chicken. LOL

Kurt,

I think the turkey is holding the chicken. Now where's the duck?

So this is where the rubber chicken went when the they turned out the lights in our old office. Back in the day we had a rubber chicken in our office. That was at Mt Bell, the real olden days. hahaha

That's the best y'all could do? A rubber chicken! Ha! Let me know when you get to a frozen chicken or, better yet, a chicken that just lots it's head a few minutes ago. Ah, now I remember why I'm not a chicken farmer -- LOL.

Russel,

It was their idea of initiation. The rubber chicken gets tossed around the room from time to time if a member talks longer than their allotted 60 seconds.
