Did You Miss Me?


Well, you may have thought you'd seen the last of me. But, fortunately for us both, it's not true. What happened to us, you may wonder. Well, you people have crazy government systems-- that's a big part of the problem. In the end, however, we have prevailed: The GEE Funny Farm has finally gotten a conditional use permit so that you may, if you are so lucky, come and see my fine, beautiful, white feathered body. And, despite all my reservations about money-insurance stuff, somebody had the brains and the guts to think, "Yeah, these slobbery dogs, hairy llamas, hopping wallabies, and handsome parrots ought to be viewed and admired." So now we can be.

So far, Kathy got one job visiting a group of adults having a farm day theme, but they didn't want me--not right in the head I tell you. They seemed not to think that parrots qualify. So I was left at home. Fortunately, things are about to change. I'm headed out on the town one month from now on February 5th to go to the Great Lakes Pet Expo at State Fair Park. I will be there all day, prepared to sign autographs and pose for pictures. So make sure to mark it on your calendar. In dark red. Permanent marker. And bring French fries.
