Johnny Kucks RIIP: Birds of a Red Feather...

The Deaths in 2013 site list under October 30th: 
Johnny Kucks, 80, American baseball player (New York YankeesKansas City Athletics), cancer.
His first name is an addition to the "John..." pattern-cluster and so a lead.  Note the following from his wiki page:
On October 11, 1961 he was purchased by the Baltimore Orioles from the Athletics, but on December 1, 1961 the Orioles traded him to the St. Louis Cardinals for minor leaguer Ron Kabbes; however, he never played again in the majors.
In light of the recent "Bird" pattern-cluster, the above is significant, not to mention the twin 11.  Note both the cardinal and the Oriole are birds that like the Robin have red feathers at various parts of their body.  So what's up with the red birds?!

Note the following from http://www.ancestry.com/name-origin?surname=kuck:
means chicken... weed... a farmer who neglects his land. 
So I googled the Red Hen, and Note the following from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Little_Red_Hen:
Plot summary
In the tale, the little red hen finds a grain of wheat, and asks for help from the other farmyard animals (most adaptions feature a pig and a duck) to plant it, but none of them volunteer.
At each later stage (harvest, threshing, milling the wheat into flour, and baking the flour into bread), the hen again asks for help from the other animals, but again she gets no assistance.
Finally, the hen has completed her task, and asks who will help her eat the bread. This time, all the previous non-participants eagerly volunteer. She declines their help, stating that no one aided her in the preparation work. Thus, the hen eats it with her chicks leaving none for anyone else.
The moral of this story is that those who show no willingness to contribute to a product do not deserve to enjoy the product: "if any man will not work, never let him eat."[1] 
So there you have, we have been warned.  Those who will not help with building the TUSSH will one day find themselves without a means to eat!!
