That's a "rolling chair" along the lines of the ones seen in the Atlantic City photos.

That rooster sure looks to me like it has a bill and webbed feet.

What else would you need, except of course a baby carriage and a duck?

Thatch Masters

One thing that can be said about Joe, he has the entrepreneurial spirit. He knew how to market his alligators and his residence.
