Hello, everybody,

Mr. Alf or Lucas, of course, have nuked the posts, but I am quite catty at the moment, all 9 lives consumed with curiosity. Last night some incomprehensible nincompoop of a bird rancher spammed the forum with a dozen ads for parrots, eggs, vultures(!) and other assorted foul fowl. I want to know why on Earth a bird rancher would think that the people on this forum would want a parrot for a pet. I mean, it's far too chancy. The stupid bird could hear you getting a spanking and then for the rest of the parrot's 50 year life it would belt out to every visitor, not "Polly want a cracker," but "Ow, ow, screech, SLAP! no more, no more, it stings, it stings, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, OWEEE!" in your exact, all too recognizable voice. In my house such a parrot wouldn't survive the first iteration of that chorus. Oh, worser and worser, what if it got loose, flew the coop, and broadcast your spanking to all and sundry from the treetops. It's illegal to discharge a shotgun in the city limits, but in this case the prison time would be worth it! I thought Beeper, the mocking bird that imitated my alarm clock outside my bedroom window every day at dawn was bad. Screecher would be several orders of magnitude worse! It seems to me that this forum is the worst of all possible places to scare up a customer for a parrot!!

Or maybe not. Anyone here own one?
