An old service, still pretty new to me. I'm very slow with technology.

welcome to my island
@rookie54 saidScrambled, poached or fried though? Read the story on the BBC website, maybe I've just gotten progressively more and more cynical over the years but I struggle to believe what's on the news these days.
@Trev33
perhaps, but the story as reported included a photo of an egg carton from clarence court
they look tasty
@Trev33
daddy used to say all the time, "don't believe everything you read"
i remember when the term "spin" was coined
it's just faster and there's an echo as it's repeated until it's tuned out and
there must be something to fill the void
@trev33 saidWhy waste your time reading that crap, same old stuff in the news.

Although I have been glued to CNN and the protests going on and most recent killing and the Wendy's burnt all that was left was the walls which I suspect were concrete.

such a bold, manly statement, dissing the activities of a normal human being
"Although I have been glued to CNN and the protests going on and most recent killing"
immediately reverses course and admits to the exact same behavior just dissed
"and the Wendy's burnt all that was left was the walls"
veers off course to the right and nearly crashes as the middle has been lost
"which I suspect were concrete."
completely loses sight of all he has just typed as the stream of consciousness takes over his reality and the music plays

@lemondrop saidhad a pet crow for a couple of months, landed on my window sill, I opened the window and it hopped in,I used to smoke at the time & it would take the ciggie from my mouth and put it under its wings, I i thought it was using the smoke to rid its self of parasites, It was obviouly tame , eventualy it flew off never to return.
nice
I'm enjoying some very loud crows
love them
miss my blue jays though
hope they return soon

Australia's laughing kookaburra really sounds like he's having a happy time, it's a real gurgling cackle and it makes everyone happy to hear him. Even knowing it's an aggressive territorial announcement doesn't change the effect.
