You might have to consult [http://www.microsoft.com/vbasic/|the Dark Gods] to get this answer. I don't know if Perl-fu is strong enough for this. (Though, of course, [BrowserUk|the White Knight] will disagree with me.)
<p>In addition, this might require a stronger sacrifice than just a chicken. You might have to sacrifice a whole goat for this one. Though, personally, I'd start with a white dove and increase the sacrifice as needed.
<p>In case you don't remember the sacrificial hierarchy, it's:
<ol>
<li>mice
<li>rats
<li>white doves
<li>cats
<li>black doves
<li>non-purple dogs
<li>non-red chickens
<li>purple dogs
<li>red chickens
<li>sheep
<li>white goats
<li>small children with birthmarks
<li>black goats
<li>small children without birthmarks
</ol>
