I feel your pain in regard to the bird issue. I had a similar scenario
with my car a while back. My paint is not oxidized but it is apparently
enamel without clear coat. The spot is still visible after washing etc.
I have not tried to rub it out with some compound but that may help so I
do have intention to try it.
As to the basketball ban, I could not agree with you more.
The whole politically correct nonsense is becoming a problem. The media
loves this stuff and any poor soul who defies the politically correct
agenda is hung out to dry.
Is it ok to be a bigot so long as you don't say anything that might give
you away?
My basic feeling is that the black people are a whole lot better off
with a situation where they know who the bigots are than they are with a
situation where people keep their opinions quiet.

I was driving my '83 300D beater through Crystal RIver which is a
short distance from the outer edge of the tidal swamp that makes up
the coast of this part of north central Florida when some big sea bird
(probably a pelican) dumped a huge load of white feces on the hood. I
was on the way home so I didn't stop to clean it off. By the time I
arrived at the house, the pelicans present had dried and was barely
removeable with a garden hose. It stained the evenly oxidized blue
finish of the beater, and as everyone knows, there is no way to get
stain out of oxidized paint besides letting it continue to oxidize
until the paint has powdered off and the stain is gone.
There are many advantages to having a Mercedes daily driver with
oxidized paint. No one envies me for having a Mercedes, and thieves
don't even think about breaking into it since there is little
likelihood of anything valuable being inside.
So you see, Randy, there are always problems with our old Mercedes.
It's just that many are hardly worth discussing.
As far as discussing current events, Amanda Knox has once against been
declared guilty of murdering her room mate by an Italian court. Does
anything think she is guilty? Not guilty? Personally I think she is
guilty.
Mr. Sterlings team has been barred from playing in his league because
Mr. Sterling said some bad words in private. How is this justified in
light of the Constitutions "freedom of speech"?
