So not only is the chili cheese combustible, it's explosive?  Already on my list of favorites. Someone inform Dr. Madd of this. He may add it to his list of favorites. |

When the 'gaaaaah' gets too big ... (like lately, in fact) I have this video saved in my bookmarks and no matter how many times I watch it- it never fails to make me feel better.
I'm told there's no hummingbirds in England. Is that true? |

If someone puts a status on the old book of face declaring how bored they are, I usually respond with: You're not the only one, I quite like to say masturbate furiously while crying yourself to sleep |

Not in the wild, but in Zoos &/or Breeding Centers. (I suspose there could a few escapees somewhere, but I really doubt it though) |

we do have wild parakeets, wallabies, coatis and other wierd animals that shouldn't be over here - so there's no reason a hummingbird couldn't survive in the south as long as the winter was mild...they should introduce them, they're so cute it would improve everyone's mood  |

New Zealand's South Island has the most feral parrot out there: the Kea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KeaIn fact these birds have turned the feral knob up to 11 and are now low level gangsters. I witnessed a pair removing the rubber strip holding in a windscreen of a car in a tourist carpark, a local told me that they apparently do this in order to remove the windscreen (!) in order to get at all the food that experience has taught them is inside a car. They will also let out all the air from tyres, no good reason, it's just fun for them. On the hills at 6000 ft, one kea distracted us with a silly hopping behaviour, that had us exclaiming "how sweet", whilst it's mate made a dive for the open lunchbox and made off with the sandwiches. Bastards, there goes lunch! They flew off onto a big rock and shared them. I can imagine those two in the pub that night, telling the tale: "and then Bill did the dance, and I made a jump for the food, works every time!". In the word of The Golden Compass my daemon would be a kea! |

"feral Parrot" ...
it *is* amusing.
If, like me,you think in images-
I immediately pictured
a parrot in a 'do' rag
with a leather jacket
rolled up jeans
dark glasses
standing on a corner,
maybe harassing innocent sparrows passing by....

Those aren't feral parrots, they are zombie parrots exported from Haiti. Not to worry though, they don't eat brains, just fingers and buttons. |

I saw feral parrots in London when a few of us went down to shoot that Tennants advert. They were gree, and quite big, bt for a while I was the only person who noticed them. I kept shouting parrot! and by the time everyone looked, it had already flown past.....

big honkin parrot. National Geographic just did a thing on them. At least, I *think* it was this one. They just look bigger than a macaw. thicker. something. Could walk one of those on a leash and scare dogs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kea |
