I thought it was the Mystery Babylon Be at first!
Alfred Hitchcock laughs from beyond.
According to an interview with Dick Cavett, Hitchcock admitted that roughly 3,200 real birds were trained for use in the film. Hitch also admitted that the ravens were the most clever, while the seagulls were the most ferocious.

Reports are given at times of ravens seemingly drawing people lost in forest to safety. Actually, they are trying to lure the people towards a predator because the birds cannot pierce skin with their beaks and need a meal of carrion. All they can manage otherwise is to peck out the eyes.
Last year a young deer was killed by a truck down the road from our place in NC. The turkey buzzards ate at the meat exposed by torn skin, and the eyes, but did not pierce the skin.

The ravens and crows (corvids) are so smart they peck out the eyes in order to reach the brain where the real nutrition lies.
I lived in Argentina for 10 years. The Argentines believe that getting bird shit on you is good luck. Another reason I dislike that race. But then, so does every other South American nation.
“Question: How do you get rich? Answer: Buy an Argentine for what he’s worth. Sell him for what he thinks he’s worth.”
That joke would work for Biden as well.

Look at it from the Saudi side: if the West succeeds with their green pipe dreams then the Saudis loose that market. The West has also shown itself a useless ally by not supporting the war in Jemen, arming ‘moderate’ rebels in Syria, cozying up to Iran and all the whining about that murdered ‘journalist’. Small wonder the Saudis are looking for a new patron, and China must seem the better choice to them.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
And if more explication is needed, “Man who stand next to mountain of corn take incoming from corn eating birds, Putz”

How bad is it? Even the Saudis are lampooning Slow-Joe, and Kamala the Ugandan. They’re good, too.

That’s some good shitting!

OK, the first three blog sites I’ve visited this morning all feature the clip of Joe Potato getting the bird.
I think that says something about my choice of blog sites.
Almighty God strike this putrid carbuncle asunder.
