-> Hi, everyone. I have a friend who is putting together a collection
-> of stories about pet birds. She'd like anything that is "heroic,
-> humorous, heartwarming". (I guess kind of like the "Special Birds"
-> She would also like a $2.00 donation for handling. Hope this
-> doesn't constitute an advertisement! (You can throw bird doo-doo
-> at me, Ms. Moderator!) 
-> Thanks,
-> Sue
When I read this Sue, I couldn't help but almost fall off my chair in
laughter.  Your friend is writing a book about birds, etc., wants folks
to provide her with material for said book, and on top of that wants
them to pay for it....great scheme...Please remit to me $2.00, which
will allow you to respond to this message.
