chicken-bumps!

i wanted to type about something else....but i just had a very important thought cross my mind. it all originated with a statement that i just made: "I have goose-bumps". why are the called goose-bumps? i understand the reasoning. for those of you who don't know what in this crazy world i'm talking about, allow me to explain. when you pull the feathers off of a bird, such as a chicken or i suppose goose, it leaves little bumps birds skin; quite similar to that of what we call "goose-bumps". now this is the part that i don't understand......why do they call them goose-bumps? it's more common today to eat chicken not goose, so shouldn't we call them chicken bumps? i'm not saying that no one eats goose, because i myself have had it before, but i've had chicken for more often. i think we should also call them "chicken-bumps" because, we call some one who is a wuss a chicken, and in some way i'm sure that being cold is a way of showing that you are weak.....so there is just a much better mental picture that is created when you call them chicken-bumps.......yeah so that's my story, just thought that you would all be interested in knowing what i'm thinking that's all!
