Beards Nest Soup

Pay men to grow large, bushy beards.

Plait said beards so that they contain small, well designed nests for birds.

Train small birds to adopt the nests and lay eggs in them.

Harvest some of the eggs and use them to make egg-drop soup, then market it under the trade name "Beards Nest Soup".

       I would say this is your most unpalatable idea ever, but of course only time will tell.

       In an episode of the fabulous Family Guy, Peter provided a home to a bird using his newly grown beard, which went on to produce a little family. Will try to find link. I full approve of the idea of making nests in beards, so here is something with which to feed to hungry fledglings. {+}

       Since the beard-wearers will need to clean their beards at intervals, they will also be supplied - as part of their contract - with specially formulated Beard Nest Soap.

       + I like the imagery of men with little birds peeping out of their beards!

       The beard of my imagination would make a nice home for a pair of stubby chubby owls. The beard of my reality might eventually house a stick insect.

       Yes! So much yes!

       The circus would feature: Breaded Lady Nest Soup which investigative reporters would soon find to really be Campbell's with twigs added.

       // rec ... i ... pie //   

       Soup, not pie. Besides, it's a form of aviculture, not a method of food preparation. The details of the soup aren't specified explicitly.   

       Good to have you back [lurch].

       // He's never been away. Ever. //   

       Is that a lament?

       // a snot laiden mustache was an entirely disgusting revelation //   

       That does not come as a surprise, however. Why exactly did you feel the need to share that ? Too ... much ... information ...
