2. What happened to the Duck?
I haven't seen him for a while. Don't know a thing about the company but I like the Duck.

8. More importantly,
is it OK with PETA for AFLAC to use a duck for advertising purposes, considering the tempest in a tea-pot over Kenneth Branagh using ducks onstage?

For the southerners, has PETA ever come after the Peabody Hotel for its ducks? If not, why not?

So I'll bet he can afford the best medical care.

12. If it is ill, I recommend "a la orange" Theraflu.
For Ducks, it tastes much better. :7

13. I saw him Peking out from under a blankie the other day. He was terrified.
I do believe though, because he's so famous and has health insurance, that when the flu passes, he'll feather it quite well. I'm confident that he'll get a clean bill of health.
