[UC] For the Birds

2011-04-04 Thread Joe Clarke
Dear Neighbors:

It's getting to be that time of year again when our feathered friends will
be returning to roost in the well-groomed trees and bushes of University
City.  As was mentioned in prior years, some of the biggest fans of this
migration are our neighborhood kitty-cats.  You can almost hear their little
feline-hearts palpitating with expectation of their little buddies' return.
Many a colorful songbird bypasses our community for safer branches north and
west of here, once they witness the toothy reception that awaits them.  But
I've recently discovered that there is an intervention, a program if you
will,  that your kitties can attend to help them learn to love their little
friends, but not eat them.  It is called Birds Anonymous (B.A.) and my
veterinarian just told me that a chapter will be opening soon in our
community!!  Here is a link with some of their literature and moving
testimonials by former bird-hounds.  I advise you take a look at this and
see if we can find a good place to start a meeting.

One of my favorite Looney Tunes!

Let's see what's cookin' on TV:

After-a bastin' you'll find that your bird-a will be-a GOL-den-a Brown-a.
Ev-er-y a-SUCCulent-a MORsel will-a SIM-ply MELT-a in-a YOU Mouth-a.

THEN

That was 'Bye-bye Blackbird'. Now we'll hear 'When the Red Red Robin Comes
Bob-Bob-Bobbin' Along.

Don't make them like that anymore.

This link is not as clear as yours, but is really funny because we have to
watch out for dogs who chase cats who chase birds.

Enjoy!
