Quote of the Day
"I wish the eagle had not been chosen as the representative of this country. He is a bird of bad moral character; he does not get his living honestly. You may have seen him perched in some dead tree where, too lazy to fish for himself, he watches the labor of the fishing hawk and, when that diligent bird has at length taken a fish and is bearing it to his nest for his young ones, the bald eagle pursues him and takes the fish. With all this injustice, he is never in good case."

Posted by: normzone on March 10, 2006 11:59 AMWe're waiting for the
chirp-chirp-chirp
Of this tiny little fellow
Waiting for the
egg-to-hatch
On the humid monday morning in this
Congressional incubator
God knows the temperature's hot enough
to hatch a stone
But will it hatch an egg?
You sure it wasn't the Parrot, normzone?
