YAY! Noobies! Wait, if I have been on for less than a year does that mean I am still officially an noobie too?
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

No. You've posted more in a year than I have in almost 5. I think you've figured out the "submit" button.Cameraman Jenn wrote:YAY! Noobies! Wait, if I have been on for less than a year does that mean I am still officially an noobie too?


Any jackass can kick down a barn, but it takes a good carpenter to build one.

My best friend Julie has two African Grey parrots. One is named Wendell and the other is Poe. I lived with them for five years. What a trip. Now I live with an elderly cockatiel named Bird.

Well it's nice to see that there are other folks out there that have the same affliction as I do when it comes to Parrots, lol.
They truly are little people in feather suits.
Mine are around 14-15 years old and have the intelligence level of a five year old child, the emotional stability of a two year old and the capability of cognitive speech.
There are day's I am humbled by them and then there are days I would be the first in line to throttle them, lol.
Being a "Parront" is very much so a labor of love.
Didn't mean this to turn in to Parrot 101, but I do tend to go off on a tangent when that topic pops ups.
Hope that I am able to contribute even if it's just a tad to the "group."

For thirty years he talked in feathered pride
For thirty years he talked before he died.
You say that parrots do not really know
The meaning of the words they speak? Just so,
I grant you that you may be right - but then,
Do men? Theodore Stephanides

It'd take you a long time to blow up or shoot all the sheep in this country, but one diseased banana...could kill 'em all.
I didn't even know sheep ate bananas.

I like to talk about Julie's birds. It's interesting, they have specific noises that they identify with different people and they also take on the voices of different people. When I first moved in, Wendell developed a fascination with me and would therefore imitate me most often. It's very funny to hear my voice from the other room saying, "Hey, knock it off!"

Wow ,Graehstone! Good to have another TC fan bird dude around.
I was starting to feel cramped by the chihuahua fanatics.

All girls? Are you crazy? How do you cope with the hissing and biting?

Newbie here
Hi everyone,
Though I've just joined Kevin's watch, I've been lurking here on and off for a few years now. I'm from the state of Kansas. I've read almost all of SRD's work by now. I first read TCOTC back in junior high. When I revisited the books shortly after graduating from college, I discovered so many more layers to the books than I had noticed the first time around. There's something about SRD's characters' defiant struggle for hope and redemption even while (seemingly) in the midst of hopelessness that somehow appeals to me. I sometimes like to think of the Chronicles as a cross between Lord of the Rings and Crime and Punishment.
I finished his mysteries about a week ago. I enjoyed each book in the series more than the last. I recently found a copy of TMWTTGA when I was visiting Portland, Oregon and visited Powell's Books while there. (Has anybody ever been there before? Amazing. The largest bookstore I've ever seen in my life.)
I can't wait for FR to come out!
