They squash their poor old eyelids, get sloshed, and go berserk.
imagine finding one living in your laundry basket, or pissing in your swimming pool.

Milan Sanremo tips here,
classic1 - Wout Van Aert. He is flying. Dark horse I’m picking Matteo Trentin. The pair of them look ACE on the bike. I don’t want to see gimps winning the most beautiful race on the calendar.

I saw Ian Dury with Wilko Johnson many years ago (before Ian was dead, in fact). It was Ace Primo Choice Grouse. -

Amazing pics Mr. E. The detail in them is astonishing. I can see the reflection of the house/porch/white window frames in the eyes of the kea. I remember stopping at Arthur's Pass a few times and laughing at the keas trying to tear all the rubber out of the car window seals and wipers. It didn't work, as I was in a hire car, which everyone knows is the most indestructible vehicle on earth. Funny smart birds though.

Are the top two on this page a sea eagle? Hey, how big and impressive are those shoebills?

Yes, the top 2 are a sea eagle circling over the apartment I lived in in Singapore. Awesome birds.
The keas were on Stewart Island (Rakiura). Also awesome birds.
Looking at a shoebill’s eyes makes you (Me) feel like he / she knows more about life than you (I) do. Awesome birds.

Looking at Milan Sanremo start list. Dead set, there are at least four teams in this race who’d get their arses kicked at NRS level.

I went for a walk today and saw some newly hatched ducklings and they were [censored] CUTE.

L O V E the Brubeck version. SO much.
Here's some quality John Coltrane:
..and Miles Davis:
I'm sorry. I really do love the Brubeck track. I blame the YouTube algorithm for the two videos.

Here's some local talent. No need to thank me. You're welcome.

It's one-hit-wonder time...
