Garrison Keillor: If you're tired of dusting (SNEEZE) around the house and getting into those hard to get at places behind furniture (GRUNTING), here's a feather duster that beats all other feather dusters (CLUCKING). It's the Dominique French Domestic Chicken. This is not your ordinary Leghorn who runs around like it's head is cut off, this is a French chicken (FRENCH CLUCKING) that has a sure sense of elegance and style and it gets behind furniture and knick-knacks while you sit back and enjoy a magazine and a beverage. Simply spray your French Domestic Chicken with polish (AEROSOL CAN) to give your furniture a beautiful shine and fresh scent. (FRENCH CHICKEN. SARDONIC LAUGHTER) I think the French Domestic Chicken thinks that your sofa doesn't go with that rug. (FRENCH CHICKEN DISGUST) And she doesn't care for the pictures on the mantle. Well, when you have a French Domestic Chicken you have to put up with some commentary. But it's worth it. From Dominique (CROWING) — the best dusting chicken on the market today.
