I had a coworker whose wife was mysteriously near death for the decade he worked there. I saw her at the Christmas party a few years in a row and she seemed normal? The guy didn't seem to be a liar but I never knew what to believe, so I went with my own eyes

If he was using it to get days off, technically we're all terminal at some point??

If you taught students (as I do, grad students!), you’d hear stories like this almost every week. I just reply that that’s terrible and all my sympathy (without believing it ever, though it could even be true occasionally), and then ask “when can you get it in?”

I love your show are used to ride the Wabash cannonball at Opryland amusement park in Tennessee when I was five circa 1977 it was a roller coaster it had 3 Very Tight Loop de loops. My wallet fell out when I was really little and I have my name written on the card and nothing else in it and I hadn’t returned to meet in the mail.

Whats funny is when you have an excuse no one will believe, or it sounds ridiculous. I had to reschedule a few customers this past week because my parrot has been sick and had to go to the vet a couple of times. But after the first time I said it it was just easier to say "my van broke down"

And then my van DID break down! What a life

Oh thanks for asking, Becky! Much better now, he is on two different antibiotics and an anti-inflammatory. I have to give him four doses a day by oral syringe and it is a real struggle--he already bit the end off two of the syringes. But I'm just happy for him to be feisty and bopping to the radio again

I saw Wille at play with his fantastic son, at the outlaw fest in July.

He's still got the voice!
He plays decently, but has understandably lost some of his dexterity in his hands.

My grandma owned 15-20 birds at a time for my whole childhood and adulthood until she passed away, including an African Grey and a Cockatoo!

Also Amazon Blues.

What instrument did you play?
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:48pm
PigeonsAndRust:

↳ Becky @8:42
Wow, that's a lot to care for! And the big ones get jealous and depressed if they don't get enough attention

I am kind of sorry I didn't buy a cockatoo that was in a pawnshop (now closed) in Kerhonkson NY. The story they told was that its previous owner had it trained for Barnum and Bailey's. If it was in the right mood, and you put dollars and change in front of it, it would add it up and tell you the total. I tried and the first time it just gave me a dirty look but the second time it said "dollar thirty" !

They wanted $2k which in retrospect is a bargain, but at the moment it seemed extravagant

(((Murakami Whywolf):

John Ciardi, evidently, was from Metuchen. I like his translation/version of Dante's "The Divine Comedy", growing-up speaking Italian is said to have helped him do it.

I’ve only ever owned a cockatiel as far as birds go, but I miss him and would totally get another

My grandma had cockatiels too. One of them was named Otis after Otis Redding and could whistle the whistle solo from Dock of the Bay!
