Welcome To My Wild Kingdom

Usually the only thing that gets unruly around my place is the cheese (I swear it's going to invent fire one of these days. Fondue! Ha!). Recently, however, I've noticed a few visitors.

Like the flock of parrots in my neighborhood. They're very loud, and they've got squawks like chain smokers. Little feathered chain smokers. What would parrots smoke, anyway? Probably cheroots. Oooh, or maybe those "Swisher Sweets" I always see at the grocery store but would never (ever) buy.

Regardless, in keeping with my pledge to take a photo a day, here's a parrot:



I also took a pretty cool picture of a spider, but I think it might freak some people out, so I'm not sure I should post it...

Swisher Sweets: underrated. Also, furiously referenced in Bay Area rap songs. The really bad ones more often than not.

I'd like to hear some parrot rap, now that you mention it. Or I mention it. Whatever. I hope it would be about crackers and loaded with clever puns about macaws.

Post the spider! Post it!

This is my poor attempt, I am sure you can do better...

I look forward to you posting a parrot photo a day.

I know the parrots of which you speak, as they often fly over my house. I, however, never see them.
