Good morning everyone!
Wake n Bakebongsmiliebongsmiliebongsmilie
I had such a good time last night. I went to the Parrot Rescue where my birds are just to hang out for little bit. I made some new friends. These guys that rescue these birds just for the 'love' are such wonderful people. I am definitely going to be spending most of my free time there helping them in anyway I can. We need more people like these 2 guys in our world. It is not that often that you meet someone that really cares and love unconditionally. I feel so blessed I have met them, they will forever be in my heart. I wish I could do more for them.

A few years ago I had a neighbor you was breeding love birds..the problem was he was inbreeding..I saw him about to flush a baby bird..it had one leg in the normal position and the other came straight out from under the wing and pointed straight
to the sky. I told the guy that I'd take it.. I sat there every two hours for about 2 weeks feeding it..that stupid prick didn't even know that birds have a crop, (a pouch in throat to store food) and was going to "pop" it.. so after it grew it was really funny..it would hang by it's fucked leg swinging back and forth, with it's good leg dangling....I line the whole cage with carpet seeing as he couldn't walk or jump and would drag himself around..I also put sticks in the upper cage so he could climb where it wanted.. It was quite rewarding..I'd open his cage and he's drag himself to the door and fly over to the sofa..I'd put my hand down and make a circle with my fingers..he's crawl over and flip himself on his back and put his head in the circle and rub his neck..He loved that and would do it for about 15min at a time.. He sure as shit could bite though..... even at that size..he is in the parrot family and has those strong jaws.. he lived for 7 years..

That is so nice Twisty. I knew that you were a good person, I am a woman and I get that womanly intuition....I knew you were a good person:)
I hope that man gave up on breeding...I am sure he didn't, too much money to be made off these birds....at the birds expense.

He did give up eventually..all the birds got sick and died... I remember the worst was during the ice storm we had here in the late 90's.. in Feb. no power in almost the whole province for about a month..so here's twisty with his fucked leg...the bird..with fucked leg and the cat..I'm running around with them all in tow trying to find a warm place..which is hard with no power in the middle of winter.. lived on candle light, twistys, beer and BBQ......

Inbreeding will do that...
I just had the vision of you running around with your bad leg and the bird with his and the cat...made me smile:-P
The things we do for the ones we love, it is amazing!
Here is to Mr. Twisty...one of the few good ones.....:joint::hug:

This is off topic....but I need some advice.

Last week when I was moving my birds something happened. I had the trailer all loaded up and I was driving to the rescue. I got to the end of my road which has a 4 way stop sign, and I was stopped when all of a sudden to my right this jaguar came flying over the hump back bridge and turned down my street. He almost hit me and he was so close that I could even see the color of his eyes, it was crazy. After he blew by me the cops were following...this was a police a chase. I could see in my side mirror that the guy hit a ditch and flipped the jaguar in my yard. I didn't turn around because I can only drive forward with the trailer....When I got home I found a good portion of my front yard ripped to shreads and oil and jaguar parts all over my driveway. I got out the pressure washer and tried to remove the oil, it is not coming up and it is covering my whole driveway. The yard is no better, it has oil all in it. This is going to cost me a lot of money to fix, do I have to pay for this?? I called the local sheriffs office and they told me that the guy was a 'medical' and was not arrested for any felony offenses, he got committed. When I told them about my damage they blew me off like it is my problem. Could this be true? Do I have to absorb the cost of this?

his insurance should cover it .. If not yours will and then they sue him.. you might have to eat the deductable .. but there are ways around that PM me

Morning all, damn Sunny, what a drama. I would think that the guys car insurance would be responsible for your property damage. If your drive way is concrete you can use gerenic cat litter to soak the oil up (not the clumping kind).

Not to sure about your yard though. The oil might contaminate the soil and make it where nothing wants to grow for a while. I'd call those cops back and tell them you need the guys insurance information to contact someone about your property damage.

I am fairly new to this state, so I am not real familiar with how the insurance works. I asked for the insurance info when I called and the lady told me it doesn't matter because this is a 'no fault' state? Now, what the fuck does that mean? I think I will call my homeowners insurance company and see what they say. I don't think my rates should go higher because of this and I would think they would be raised if they have to pay for this.

Yes your homeowners will not want to pay it and they will take the other company to court for it. I agree with Vette, get that camera working. I hope you have pics of before the damage for comparison, that might help too. No fault state, what the fuck do that mean? Sounds like they threw some bullshit at you.

I would call back and ask since this is a "no fault state" why do people have insurance at all? Sounds like a really big bubbling crock of shit.

Wow I didn't take any pics yet. I will do this now. I did have a landscaping company come over yesterday for an estimate so I do have 1.....I will call 2 more companies this morning.
Thanks Vette.

take lots of pictures , get a copy of the police report, call your insurance company and get 3 written estimates ...

I am googling an reading about the no fault shit right now. It is confusing. I also think it is bs....but apparently Florida is a no fault insurance state, whatever the fuck that means.

How you doing this morning Miss? Life good?
