Im sorry she had to go through that CR. Actually from what I remember they taught, gasp, manners and stuff like that and how to be nice to people.

AWell I have really enjoyed the beautiful weather the last few days. Today wasn't quite as nice but but I made the best of it. Spent the day loading for our trip to Portland in the early morning. As I started I discovered that several of my containers of metal were about half full of ice so I spent most of the day thawing them so I could pour the water out. And now they say we could be getting some snow !!!!

Coast to Coast is talking about the massive black bird kill.

Conspiracy theory: ionized ray gun from satalites beam down and microwaved the birds.....

Suspects: China, North Korea, Russia (Former Soviet Unions)

Interesting to listen to on the radio.

Occams razor states the easiest answer is most likely the correct one. Fireworks do sound fishy as a way to cause thousands of birds and of a few different species to get confused and fly into the ground. Birds here fly up not down... but maybe they are like that in AK....

Supposedly this is linked to the large fish kills too.....

Sit back and listen. its amusing. If its true then we are doomed.... Our livers will be fried by rays instead of alcohol poisoning.....

He and I have history so I am acctually going to go talk to the city council. I have researched the city codes and really the only bird they address is the raising of pigeons. You can keep those in a coupe I dont see why not a couple hens as well. Maybe some game birds too.

I have coturnix and bobwhite quail in a cabinet style cage rack on my garage. No one knows I have them but my family and rainwolf. They are legal but no one knows or cares.

I can't be the only one who saw this picture and thought... "OMG a 1 legged chick!"

Growing up in the 70's in Ketchikan, american TV was kinda hit & miss. I do know almost all the shows mentioned. But I really remember Canadian shows especially "The Beachcombers" and "Space 1999". I had a crush on Maya for the longest time

Russ- Gotta love those shapeshifting aliens.

As far as fish and bird kills. They've been around forever. Hood Canal has fish kills occasionally. I remember reading Rachael Carson's "Silent Spring" I think it was written in the 60's or 50's and it talks about fish kills.

call the city clerks number that was in the link. since the website is broken

I had one AC officer tell me it was illegal for my rooster to crow... ever...
ermm say what??? so a dog can bark but my roo can't crow??

I researched all laws here in Seattle and found that as long as my rooster did not crow enough to create issues with the noise ordinance then all was fine. (Roosters are now Illeagle in Seattle due to new law just passed. My roo is "grandfathered in")
Well since my coop is not sound proof I just toss him into a large dog crate in the garage every night late.. then toss him out after 9am so he can make as much noise as he wants as long as its not a continuous issue. (meaning he does not crow nonstop for hours on end) Oh I really would get a long crower if I could... just to piss my obnoxious neighbor off

course I have that 1 neighbor that complains about my dogs barking even after they are dead and buried

She would insist that my dog was barking even when I was going to college in Idaho and had my dog with me...
She must have the worlds best ears cuz she can "tell" when its my dog barking not the neighbor next door dogs, or the other neighbors dogs or etc etc.. (every other home in this area has a dog)
Hell I can't even tell the barks between my neighbors dog and mine! they are both Kelpies!
