I can't believe you put this on the floor for me to poop on? Did you even look at this ad?



What do you mean I can't drive? I can stand on the steering wheel! Don't try to distract me with a new toy! I WANT THIS CAR!

Ha ha! So funny. My Grey prefers the colored funnies for his poop zones. I catch him hanging upside down looking at the pretty pictures. Proverbial "bathroom reader" for parrots. ;-)

That's funny! Look at her cute expressions, she obviously means what she is saying! :)

Is that one of your beautiful paintings behind her?

Haha, what was really funny was watching her acrobatics getting the paper to the side of her play stand. She's recently been spending her days on her stand in the room with her flock mates. She's loving it.

Julie, my youngest did the portrait when he was in high school, he entered it in several art shows, part of his art class. Graphite on illustration board.

Haha, I'm a step ahead, Aunt Wendy! All my cards are locked away and she doesn't have access codes! I hope?

Great picture! Lol, everyone laughs at me because when I place the paper in Happy's cages I make sure it's not the obituaries facing up. Don't want him having to look at those all day. ��

Awww, Now you've done it! Poppy wants to know if Rocky has a car? If he does, don't tell Poppy, I'll never hear the end if it!

Valerie, wasn't it you that put the part of the paper with your least favorite politician's face in a strategic place to be pooped on?

Thanks for the giggles! That's too funny! Who wants to see obits even for a day?

Poppy would be a better driver than many of the addled loons on the roads in any city! Perhaps she will be an early adopter of a Google self-driving car?

As far as cage paper is concerned, I strive to place photos of disliked politicians and celebrities in strategic places! It's the 8 year old in me! :D

The human equivalent is the novelty roll of TP with a politician's face on each square! I seriously considered ordering a customized batch with the image of a particularly dreaded CEO of my employer, and sneaking them into the workplace. Unfortunately, the loos use those giant institutional rolls, and I would probably get caught! :eek:

High comedy, Huckleberry! As always, your captions fit the photos so well!

Tell that sassy Poppy to forget the driver's license and start putting her aviator's license to work! Lol!

Rocky doesn't have a car. Rocky has a chauffeur (me). And yes, I do put newspaper with photos of people I don't admire in strategic places. LOL They all have their favorite perches, so it's pretty simple to place those photos where they are sure to be poop-bombed. Not just politicians. Certain celebrities, too. Conversely, I arrange newspaper so people I like (and the stories I write!) don't get bombed. The birds are generally cooperative about that.

The stories you write? Are you a columnist, then?

No, I'm a journalist for a daily newspaper. "Columnists" are people like Leonard Pitts, who write opinion pieces or humorous ones (like Dave Barry used to) and are generally syndicated. Dear Abby is a columnist. The horoscopes in your daily paper are by a columnist. I cover local events and meetings and write feature stories and sometimes even take my own photos and I work directly for the newspaper here.
