Glad the FBI didn’t investigate this Mr Pigeon would be sleeping with his forefathers. The info clearing the bird might be with Seth Riche’s Laptop.
There must be big money in counterfeit leg bands. Hmmmmmm
A little known fact.
Military Carrier pidgeons were spreading the Spanish flu during WWI far and wide as they were used throughout the theator and cross channel.
The reason the carrier pigeons were employed in the first place was that the artillery and troop movements throughout the region made other forms Communications telegraph and telephone impossible as lines were being continually destroyed.
Radio wasn’t really a practical idea for the field in those early years.
My fault, I must have been a little subtle with my Monty Python and search for the Holy Grail movie joke using swallows?
Great movie.
.
Any movie...five minutes and sleep takes over.
Hollywood would starve based on my viewing habits.
Yeah. Me too for a while yet, though search for the holy grail is a classic and good movie, many time used as a comedic reference here on FR.
Current stuff, o way do I watch. Tired of being mocked (white, male. Conservative, Christian). Tired of movies/tv always forcing homo, tran, inter-racial as being essential to making the world function.
Rant over.
Cheers.
