        http://www.csua.org/u/kck
        This is not the big and costly turbines that you see in Livermore.
        \_ Wind power kills birds.  Can't use that.
           \_ I say we throw wind-farm NIMBY-ists into the blades!
              \_ Saving birds from a horrible death is not NIMBY-ism.  Birds

9/4     An acquaintance of mine said: "My wife is a sex camel." I'm sure
        this is anomalous, because the MOTD told me women love to have
        sex all the time.
        \_ you're an idiot.
        \_ Are camels known for having a lot of sex?  I'm confused.
        \_ Does your wife have camel toe?

HOUSTON, Texas (AP) -- Like a scene from the horror movie "The Birds," la rge black grackles are swooping down on downtown Houston and attacking p eople's heads, hair and backs. Authorities closed off a sidewalk after the aggressive birds, which can h ave 2-foot wingspans, flew out of magnolia trees Monday in front of the County Administration Building. "They were just going crazy," said constable Wilbert Jue, who works at th e building. The grackles zeroed in on a lawyer who shooed a bird away before he tripp ed and injured his face, Jue said. It appears that the birds are protecting their offspring. On Monday a you ng grackle had fallen out of its nest and adult birds attacked people wh o got too close, Jue said. "The other birds came, and one attacked my blouse and on my back." Two women came to help her after she fell to the ground, and the birds at tacked them as well. Very Tippi Hedren," said downtow n worker Laura Aranda Smith, referring to one of the stars of Alfred Hit chcock's move "The Birds."
