av8rmikeLast entry about the pigeon, I swear.
Things were getting slow in the office around 4:30, so I grabbed a trash bag and headed out to the parking lot. No, not for that, sickos! I was just going to try to grab it and release it, but I didn't want to catch the avian flu. Sure enough, it was still sitting in the truck bed and watching me. Just on a whim, I picked up part of the bungee cord mesh it was sitting on and jostled it around a lot. And what do you know, but the pigeon wasn't injured, just really dumb, since it flew off to the roof of my office building. When I left about 45 minutes later, it appeared to be sitting in the same place on the roof. I'll look to see if it's still there tomorrow morning.

It was there for weeks before it finally disintegrated and fell off. I took pictures of it. I wonder if I can still find them? :-) I never did figure out how he could've gotten there.
