Chicken Soup
A move away from the content of the last few Blogs on to a more light hearted, nay flippant, look at Chicken Soup. There are umpteen books under the auspices of Chicken Soup for the Soul of which I have but one - Chicken Soup for the Soul in Business. For other versions please see http://www.chickensoup.com/
The underlying concept of these best sellers is that there are some great stories that give comfort that things will be all right in the end. Each book is a collection of stories that overcomes adversity or tragedy and gives one a feeling of contentment. Just as chicken soup does in real life! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_soup
And if you are still not sure have a listen to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOpJdP7NEJ0
Of course, you may be just a little sceptical about the powers of Chicken Soup and perhaps justifiably; if it is lace with too much sugar. The overwhelming chicken soup sentiment can turn if it is not careful into what is now known as Glurge. http://www.snopes.com/glurge/glurge.asp
My preference is for Heinz Tomato Soup. I vote that you can do no better and I strongly recommend it to all men! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jhtml?xml=/earth/2007/07/28/scisoup128.xml If you enjoy reading my Blogs, then click on comments then RSS and you will receive and update as an when I post a new Blog.
