Now, back on topic. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sleepey.gif" alt="" /> A few mornings ago, I was awoke by a great BANG noise. I first thought it was my roof fan that had began to drop down, as it already happened, but it was not. Then it made me think about something that happened a couple of years ago on a town on Montreal’s southern shore that I saw on the TV news. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

It was a woman, showing the outside of her house to the reporter; the house was covered of excrements. Nobody around knew who’d done that, and nobody saw what happened. The woman came home and found the house like that. They and the people from the neighbouhood were absolutely stunned and were complaining about the smell, and how’d they wash that, etc... A bit later, they found what had happened; it was a plane, that passing near the house, that had mistakenly released the content of its toilet reservoirs. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> And it all fell on that poor lady’s house. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />
I’ve been searching for a copy of this story on the net, but didn’t find it either. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" /> I’ll add the link later if I can find it, someday...

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" /> But my BANG of that morning wasn’t due to excrements falling from the sky. When I woke up, I found a pile of feathers in front of the backyard door. And later found some more (very much more) feathers on the ground on another side of the house. So the BANG was finally the noise of a pigeon, chased by the hawk that visits my backyard these days, that had crashed on a wall of the house. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> Now we have a pigeon’s remains to get off the roof, cause spring shall be there soon, and it will stink a bit I think... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/idea.gif" alt="" /> But those feather piles had reminded me another TV news. It was during a professional baseball game; the player threw the ball as a dove was passing by, right between he and the guy at the bat. Guess what? I foud a link to this one! And it’s a video! Enjoy what happens when a bird wants to intervene in a baseball game! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />
