Subject: [dalton59] One More Thing to Worry About
?
Just when I thought there were no more things to worry about,
a bird has been attacking my outside car mirrors.
This bird is in love with my car mirror. Daily he pecks away
and stares at herself in the mirror. A side effect is the
proverbial bird excrement she leaves behind.
I finally solved the problem by putting Wal Mart bags over
the mirrors secured by a high tech rubber band.
This has at least slowed down the bird attacks.
The only downside is I must remember to take off the Wal Mart
bags before I drive the car.
I have not seen this activity before this year. Do you suppose
this is an omen of some kind?
Perchance Albert Hitchcock is behind this plot. Remember his
movie "The Birds" with Tippi Hedren?
Speaking of Albert Hitchcock, I am now obsessed with watching
black and white reruns of his Alfred Hitchcock Hour each weekday
night from 10:00 to 10:50 pm on Directv
Channel 539 Encore Suspense.
Classic Hitchcock stuff without commercials. I ask myself why I
watch this when all of the shows have stupid endings. Maybe that
is the answer: they all have stupid endings. Classics indeed.
This begs the question why do I have an HDTV and then watch
black and white Hitchcock shows. The answer is that there is
nothing better to watch on the tv wasteland (especially network
tv crapola).
Anyways, I digress.
Back to the birds dilemma, I thought I would pass along my
solution to the birds in the mirror problem to others.
Anyone else have a similar problem with birds?
Or maybe the birds are trying to drive me mad.
So far, they are ahead of me.
So spring is finally here. We have bluebonnets galore this
year in our yard. After a reprieve from the recent 2 year
drought, there is an abundance of wild flowers this year.
Who would have thunk back in 1959
that I would be writing
about wildflowers in my golden years...
