A Murder/Suicide of Crows

Hey there 'Redheads... Thanks for feigning interest for a fourth day in a row. I have to admit, it's tough coming up with stuff for this thing on a daily basis. Or maybe I'm just lazy. That's probably it. Well, to help back that up, I offer you a video to fill your mild amusement needs for today. A video that fills me with hope. Please enjoy this sketch from the BBC show, The One Ronnie, that compares favorably to another classic British sketch, The Dead Parrot Sketch from Monty Python...

Speaking of dead parrots, is anyone else concerned about the recent rash of birds losing the fight with gravity recently? They're taking dives like they were paid off by Don King (there's a timely reference for ya). What gives? I've heard multiple explanations, from military microwave testing to bird cults, but none of it makes much sense. All of the medical examiners' reports say that the birds, "showed signs of trauma". Yeah, that's what happens when you FALL FROM THE SKY. All of it seems like an M. Night Shyamalan rough draft. Here's something creepy. In that town in Arkansas, where the first mass swan dive occurred, the population is only 4800 people. 5000 birds died. That's more dead birds than live people. Enjoy your bucket of KFC. I'll do some more investigating and get back to you.

See you tomorrow...
