Sorta kinda funny. You know the cat didn't get decapitated because of no blood. Sort of like Will E. Coyote and Roadrunner.

Pigeons....... and gulls.

I spent a year on Kodiak Island and the gulls in town were a problem. Because of the fishery activity and the cannery's in town, the birds would congregate and sit on top of building, dropping guana everywhere. Like hundreds and hundres of gulls. You can imagine the mess.

My son worked with me that summer in Kodiak, and bought the popular T-shirt of the summer.......a T-shirt with a big dollup of Seagull poop splattered and dribbled down the front. Well, like I said, very popular in Kodiak that summer. But, he went to stay with his Grandmother for school, and about the third or forth day at school he wore the famous seagull shirt. His home room teacher refused him entrance into the classrom, sent him to the principles office, who then sent him to the school counseler who then sent him home.

Funny how it was acceptable in Alaska, but not in the staid, traditional South.

Could be why I left in the first place to live in ALaska!
