Finger Lickin' Good

Remember i said that the Cock-man lost the case and would have to pay court fees of 9,000 Kr. - and remember i said that i thought the price was rather cheap for loosing a court case and that i was a bit worried because i that we would also get a notice that we would have to pay for our part of the case even though we were told that "looser pays all"?
Well...............
The phone rang a few days ago and it was our lawyer. He said to come on down and get a copy of the final report if we want to read the judge's final and official judgement of the case. "Come and get your copy of the decision now because i go on vacation tomorrow", the lawyer said. So Jens hopped on his bike and rode to the lawyer's office. As he handed Jens an envelope with the papers inside, the lawyer said to Jens, "my wife and i would gladly accept an arrangement". Jens looked like a big question mark. "Just read the papers and you will understand", said the lawyer to Jens' confused look.
Jens peddled home and he read the papers to me. The lawyer had included a French recipe to a countryside dish made of rooster. We had a good laugh of that and continued to read the judgement. Which is, as you know, that the cock man has to get rid of his bird within 14 days - that's today folks. So tomorrow it should be cock-a-doodle-do free. And he had to promise not to get a replacement cock. But to our very big surprise he does not have to pay 9,000 kr. - he has to pay 19,000 kr. That's
nineteen thousand crowns! (approx. $3,300) ohmigod - he really is a looser! And we are laughing all the way to his bank.
