Sorta kinda funny. You know the cat didn't get decapitated because of no
blood. Sort of like Will E. Coyote and Roadrunner.

 Pigeons....... and gulls.

I spent a year on Kodiak Island and the gulls in town were a problem.
Because of the fishery activity and the cannery's in town, the birds
would congregate and sit on top of building, dropping guana everywhere.
Like hundreds and hundres of gulls. You can imagine the mess.

My son worked with me that summer in Kodiak, and bought the popular
T-shirt of the summer.......a T-shirt with a big dollup of  Seagull poop
splattered and dribbled down the front. Well, like I said, very popular
in Kodiak that summer. But, he went to stay with his Grandmother for
school, and about the third or forth day at school he wore the famous
seagull shirt. His home room teacher refused him entrance into the
classrom, sent him to the principles office, who then sent him to the
school counseler who then sent him home.

Funny how it was acceptable in Alaska, but not in the staid, traditional
South.

Could be why I left in the first place to live in ALaska!
