Default Chicken Papua ala Rockefeller

The resemblance is rather remarkable: vs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Rockefeller < what's cookin' BBY? When the natives are restless, it's cause they're hungry! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2582979/Cannibal-killing-finally-revealed-The-gruesome-details-Rockefeller-heir-gutted-cooked-Asmat-tribe-New-Guinea.html I take an interest since my only daughter's BA degree is in anthropology!!

Never mind New Guinea! one of my ATM techs is an immigrant Dyak from Indonesia....While he is warm and cordial on the job, I can't quite 'wrap my head' around the cultural differences.... while I still have one!
