There was a time when I knew more about computers than my son did. That time is long gone. Thanks to my son for this fix.

Sorry about all the confusion.

The question of the day is...
Would This Bird Still Be So Dangerous If We Did Not Have So
Many Lawyers?
I first ran into this bird when I was about
10 years old. Actually, I did not run into it. It was put in front of me by a
relative who was not related to me. It was my Aunt Betty.
I was immediately fascinated by this Classic
Wonder of a Bird. Actually, I may have messed up by saying, “Classic Wonder”. I was
trying to quote the box in which My Bird came. I might as well be exact because the box
is sitting on the table right next to where I am Blog Pecking...
“This classic novelty is a scientific wonder, using the
properties of thermodynamics to keep in constant bobbing motion.”

Back to my Aunt Betty who was not my Aunt. She
was a neighbor who lived around the corner from our family’s grocery store. She
got into our store by coming through the family gate that separated our homes.
She would appear every day coming through the gate, then through the back door
to our grocery store, to sit on her stool that was always waiting for her and
shortly thereafter she would be handed a small bottle Coca Cola.

Back to Aunt Betty not being related to us. In many ways she was more than an Aunt because she was my Aunt Betty. To this day, when I say my prayers at night, I say the names of those I want God to pay attention to. First is my Mother, second is my Father and third in line is my Aunt Betty. She has been deceased 74 years but, just in case, I keep her right up there at number three. God must be really busy, if He has not paid attention to My Aunt Betty, after 74 years of my mentioning her name to Him.

Does this little birdie look harmless? The
Lawyers do not think it is in the least harmless. On the contrary, they think
it is downright dangerous and they warn us about its dangers all over its
little box...

Fella Observation: The Glock G17L Gen5 MOS Pistol does not come close to 14 warnings...
Glock G17L Gen5 MOS Pistol's WARNING: Can expose you to lead, a carcinogen and reproductive toxicant.
Would I kid u?
Smartfella
Lagniappe: Glock does not mention that it can put holes in you. If they did that, it would prima facie evidence that the G17L Gen5 MOS was dangerous and then Glock would really be in deep doo-doo.
