You have to admit finding a string of dead birds in Austin after the mysterious smell that poses "no threat" to New Yorkers. Strange?

More intentional plant events to garner support for "Homeland Security."

"We do not feel there is a threat to the public health," said Adolfo Valadez, the medical director for Austin and Travis County Health and Human Services. He said preliminary air-quality tests showed no dangerous chemicals and the area should reopen around noon.

WTF........they are full of crap! This really pisses me off!

Something killed the birds.

And this gas smell in NYC across to Jersey and up to Westchester. WTF was that all about.

Looks like someone is working on getting rid of non-native and pest birds.

*Pigeons...bad, not native to the US..came in from early settlers...eurasian rock pigeons.
*Sparrow..I bet it's the English House Sparrow..non-native, and one of the reasons our native bluebird population went down..they push the bluebird young out of the nests and take over the nest. Came in with early settlers.
*Grackles....native, but annoying pests.

Where do we send donations to this cause?

The odd smell over New York..hmmm...I notice it every time I go there after Axtrader undresses one of his dates.

I'm in the same boat. I would just like a logical explanation.

*waits for autopsy on birds before running in circles... screaming and shouting*

Sarahnn · Post by **Sarahnn** » Tue Jan 09, 2007 11:16 am

I think the dead birds amounted to 60. I will be curious as to the autopsy and I'm guessing it was poison to keep them from roosting somewhere and leaving loads of birdshee it. Just a guess.

As far as NYC goes, shee it happens.

Sorry.

re that strange smell in NY...well it was just FRESH AIR. No one living in & around NYC knows what fresh air smells like!

Debbie · Post by **Debbie** » Tue Jan 09, 2007 7:19 pm

Yeah, they said the preliminary testing of the air quality was safe.........

YEAH RIGHT.........

That is what they said about the air quality around 911

Many people are sick and suffering from lung problems as a result.

It makes me want to approach those "in charge" with a 50 caliber and turn them into chopmeat.

Place your burger orders now.
