Wow!....None of you have any regard for the topic at hand which is hijacking.
I totally understand that there is a need to keep a conversation civil and that personal attacks should not be allowed. I would never undertake such a course of action to insult someone or ever be guilty of name calling. Twasn't the way I was raised.
Conversations do have the ebbs and flows and tend to touch on different apsects that may not have been originally intended.
I didn't mean to pick on Rho, if that is your real name, but that particular thread, for the most part, seemed to be staying on a singular topic.
I would not like to be a moderator. I would ban all of you. It must be extremely difficult keeping all of these ducks in a row.
Did you know that there are no ducks that are listed as any state birds? Is the duck not a bird, if cut does it not quack? Oh sure, a few states have listed the wood duck as their state "water fowl"....But is that not discriminating against the duck? Making it a lesser bird?
States have gone out of their way to make sure their state birds are kind of easy on the eye. Nary a raptor or duck in the bunch.
Seven states list the Cardinal as their state bird. My state included. Six states have chose the Mockingbird as six more have picked the Western Meadowlark. What about some originality? I would think that picking a state bird should be akin to the NBA draft. Once it is has been picked you have to look else where. This really gets my goat. No states, to date, list the goat as their state bird.
How about this one. The state bird of Utah is the California Gull. Talk about state envy. It's not the size of your state but what you can do with it. Fucking polygamists.
Did you know that in the bird world polygyny is much more common than polyandry? Redwing black birds will tap as many females till their little bird dicks are worn down to the nub. Don't they have any Redwing black birds in Utah? The Eastern Meadowlark likes to get their freak on as well. Notice how states will gladly embrace the Western Meadowlark and completely shun the Eastern Meadowlark.
in the lower 48 states, only the Spotted Sandpiper and Wilson's Phalarope are polyandrous. They are dirty, filthy and vile birds that should be hunted to the brink of extinction.
In Alaska there is the Red Phalarope. the female will get drunk and get herself knocked up and then within a week will lay her eggs and split. She then will immediately repeat the process. The Red Phlarope is a dirty feathered slut. For some reason no state wanted the Red Phalarope as their state bird. While the males are raising the young the female Red Phalarope is heading south to get her "party on."
If reincarnation is possible. Due to all of the good karma I have set forth unto this world, I am confident I am returning as a male Red Phalarope. However, I will be the first Red Phalarope known to practice cannibalism.
I like ducks, mice not so much.
Tight lines.
