Still laughing about this one.

So, I'm watching the game... Maggie is on one shoulder. Kiwi is on the other.

Maggie starts preening my hair. Kiwi takes that as her cue, and she starts preening the other side, only at hyper speed. Hair, beard, mustache, eyebrows... just as fast as she can go.

Well, Maggie sees her going to town, and now it becomes a competition for which bird can preen the largest area of my face the fastest... (and by now, I am laughing, and they are both laughing while I am laughing.)

Kiwi wins the preen off...

Hahahahahaha! Yeah, that sounds hilarious. Good to hear a Kiwi story, too. Haven't heard an update on her in a little while. Good to know she's winning preen-offs! Lol!

You sure they both got all your 'old' shafts removed, Mark? Were they thorough enough and got them by the roots, so that you don't have to shave for a while? Did they 're-shape' your facial hair? LMAO!

Hilarious and sweet thread!! :D
