chicks are girls, of course
anery stems from the Latin word for donkey: anis
in German, aneries, donkey business, (Eseleien) are stupid things people do
so......
chichanery are all sorts of foolish things or mischief or monkey business that girls do.
Now those of you who are fathers and mothers of daughters know exactly what I �m talking about
Things like
- dumping perfectly nice boyfriends because there is someone with a bigger motor bike waiting round the corner
- trying fancy drinks without checking how much alcohol they contain
- spending 30 minutes for makeup in the bathroom
- spending a fortune at the hairdresser �s just to come home and put the hair under the tap because it looked "simply awful"
- finding a baby mouse and hiding it in their bedroom until long after its death ...

Yeah, what else can come to mind other than chicken and canary... So here it goes: chickens are small and yellow and cute, but as they grow they change as you know. So if you want your chickens to stay small and cute feed them with a special kind of berry that will stop your chickens from growing and make them look like canaries. Have you already guessed the name of the berry? -- Right, it �s chicanery!  Sophia |
