Just went outsie to smokea cig. (Yes, we can still do that legally here in Grandview.)… Seen two snow geeze headed North. Both of ‘em honkin’ like hell as they flew.
1) Determined they were married, ‘cause neither was listening to the other.
2) Wondered whyinthehell geese honk when they fly. That’d be like running and talking. We don’t do that when we run. Hell, I’d be outta breath the first lap. Would someone Google that crap and lemme know?
Geese is the word – is the word that you hear – It’s got groove it’s got meaning – geese is the time, is the palace is the motion – geeze is the way we are feeling…. Honk, Honk… Victurd. Tune in tomorrow when we’ll discuss the first time I ever ate at Hooters (boss’s choice) and I got in big trouble. (Hint: the eye-roller)…

They are communicating with each other. Who would want to fly in the lead position the entire time, very tiring breaking the wind, so they rotate out. Did you know that most geese also have one wing slightly smaller than the other, this determines what side of the V formation they will fly on.

HEY THANKS! I'd never thoughta that... They weren't honking, they were breaking wind! Makes perfect sense now.
(Oh, and then there's the wive's tale where "when you see them flying and there's an open spot in the formation.. it's for a comrade that's fallen." NOT SO! It's a hubby-geese that's gone to the casino, or to a ballgame with friends, or out and about with the fellas. Don't believe the other crap.)
