Hundreds of birds die in western Ky.

[Abeliever]

Hello bird threaders. I hope you had a good of a day as I did. Family, good food, and bowling. haha
We had a blast. Couple gutter balls then it all came back to me like it was yesterday. Awesome. I am sure I will feel it in the morning.

I see we are still getting some whiners about the thread. Thousands and thousands of threads to troll and they just can't stand the bird thread. Too funny.

Here are a couple of cute dog/cat videos that will make you smile. Most of you anyway. lol

Check out these cats with invisible shopping carts, bikes and more
Cat owners are all too familiar with their cats intently watching and meowing at stuff that isn't there.(Except for when it’s a ghost — then you move out immediately. Don't be like those dummies in the movies.) But part of cat ownership is candid, "how'd-that-happen?" photos in which Fluffy seems to be interacting with something that was later Photoshopped out by some cat hater for a kitty smear campaign, which we all know is a thing.(Hey, we've seen this sort of thing before.) Thankfully, some good-humored people have taken these improbable photos and given them the cute captions they deserve.

Hope everyone is having a good evening. Didn't see Hempburn or Nope on here today. Or Imposter. Hope they drop in.

Sad story with a happy ending. I hope whoever did this to that service dog and this Veteran has something wrapped around their neck someday.

Florida man reunited with stolen dog used as fighting bait

Ten months after a German shepherd was stolen from Bob Moreland’s Miramar, Fla., home, the canine is back in his owner's loving arms after a horrifying ordeal.

Tears of joy streamed down Moreland’s face when he was reunited with the dog, Black Jack.
“I didn’t know I’d ever see him again,” said Moreland, a retired Air Force sergeant.

Somehow, Black Jack ended up wandering around Century Village in Pembroke Pines. Laurie Simmons, the president of Big Dog Ranch Rescue in Wellington, was notified and sent volunteer Eric Weinberger to help bring the dog to safety.
But when Weinberger arrived, he was alarmed by what he saw.

“I saw this God-awful collar around his neck I’ve never seen before,” Weinberger said.“Laurie told me it was a collar used for bait dog in a dog-fighting ring.”

Black Jack was being used as a bait dog, and a chain with raw meat also had been attached to his neck to lure dogs to fight. The dog was maimed.
“The collar had worn through his skin,” said Dr. Susan Baker.“It was so tight it had imbedded into his flesh.”

The volunteers and staff worked to nurse the dog back to health and reunite him with his owner. The dog’s implanted microchip led them to Moreland.
And now, Moreland and volunteers at the rescue try to erase the horror Black Jack endured.

Now safe from harm, the dog is on the road to recovery.

This thread is like purgatory. You are stuck here till you post enough comments to offset all the "flipped a bird" you gave people through the years

Haha seems there's a thread like this on any message board that has a lot of members. I figured the discussion flew out the window long ago. I will go back to trolling elsewhere now. Have a nice day.

Hello Belie, how are you? I hope you are having a great evening. The weekend just flew by. I thought of you and OJG when I read this. Didn't you two talk about water resources way back when?

Georgia pols ramp up campaign to shift Tennessee border, siphon water supply

Georgia residents are thirsty for Tennessee water. And state lawmakers are willing to try and move the border in order to get it.

Lawmakers in Atlanta, at the start of a new legislative session, are quickly moving to renew efforts to tap into Tennessee’s water supply by contesting the state’s border with its northern neighbor. The Georgia House of Representatives voted 171-2 this week to adopt a resolution seeking a thin strip of land leading to the Tennessee River.

That would give drought-parched Georgia a slice of the water rights. Tennessee lawmakers say Georgia can keep dreaming -- and they are ready to do whatever it takes to protect their water from Peach State poachers

The tactless Moon and impatient Sun clash as Uranus and Pluto are under pressure, making you considerably more testy than usual, try not to let them get the best of you. Make them sit in a corner until they learn how to behave. You may be suffering from the effects of recent stress, so try to take a walk in the park or knock down a twelve pack for some light relief. You feel much more sleepy later in the day, when the Moon switches gear to chatty Gemini.

Happy President's Day folks. I guess those that work for the banks and the government can enjoy a day off. Those that don't will just have to suffer until they can reach the point that getting old allows. Getting old is not ALL bad as long as you have chickens and a wood stove for entertainment and can keep Arthur out of the house. lol

I was watching a thing on Nat Geo channel that was using old scraps of cloth to extract DNA from Abe Lincoln's death. They were trying to prove that he was dying anyways from MEN2B, a form of cancer and showed 2 photos taken just 13 months a part. Others were claiming in was not cancer at all, but the war that had aged him so much. Interesting.

Too bad Ol' Una is not around. We could make plans to go to the Dollar Store and Sav-a-Lot this coming Wednesday and spend our mutual monthly stipend. Dollar Store won't be the same anymore. I won't know what NOT to get.

From what I read on some of the other topics, they need some jamming.

Still having a good bird day!!There are so many of them out. They love the windy weather.

[Abeliever]

Good morning bird threaders, great sunny day, birds out everywhere, no wind yet, just a chilly morning so far. Love the birds singing and reminding us that Spring is right around the corner. I see we still have the whiners wanting the thread gone. This one isn't going anywhere any more than the 4 randpaul sites are. Those adverstisements at the side and all they "highlight" in each post is money in the bank for topix. I still think this one is the best. Every other posts on those sites are full of hate, gloom and doom and reminds me of a bumper sticker I seen in 2008.."Opponent, not enemy" or something like that.

I hope everyone had a good weekend. Here is some news on the Eagles I watch:

Another BIRD story....creepy for North Carolina haha

Turkey vultures flock to North Carolina town, await Hitchcock remake

Even if you haven't seen Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds," you probably know what it's about. So when a bunch of them uncharacteristically roost in one area, there's reason to get nervous, even if it's based in movie fiction. But the residents of Shelby, N.C., aren't just creeped out by the turkey vultures that have been encamped along Peach Street since fall. They're disgusted, too. The big birds won't make off with a pet as their next meal, but they leave their last one all over the lawn. And people have been warned not to scare them off because, well, they'll puke. "It's their defense mechanism," explained Kristen Duren, an intern in the county extension office. "They think you will eat that instead of them." Hey, that's what a vulture would do.[Source]
