(New York City) – Once again lambasting a major corporation over mere personal problems, Micah Laaker today announced KFC (the food artist formerly known as Kentucky Fried Chicken) and Colonel Sanders were personally responsible for his recent illnesses.<\/p>\n
"Today marks a sad turning point in my relationship with the Colonel and his merry band of chicken peddlers. Because of the undeniable connection of eating their chicken at 9:30 P.M. on Wednesday, April 5, 2000, and then suddenly falling horribly ill at 10:30 P.M. on Wednesday, April 5, 2000, and<\/em> being diagnosed with salmonella<\/em> and influenza the very next day, I hereby hold him and his personally responsible," said Mr. Laaker in a statement today. "This calls for retribution. Extreme<\/em> retribution."<\/p>\n Mr. Laaker later clarified "extreme retribution" as meaning "not eating there nearly as often." "I can’t hate the Colonel forever. This seems more like the work of a rogue chicken-tampering faction than a deliberate and pernicious attack on me by the Colonel’s tried-and-true forces. I just wish he’d send me an apology. Or coupons. Whatever."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" (New York City) – Once again lambasting a major corporation over mere personal problems, Micah Laaker today announced KFC (the food artist formerly known as Kentucky Fried Chicken) and Colonel Sanders were personally responsible for his recent illnesses.
