Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedevs off-air comments that Russian Presidents are given a secret file about extraterrestrials living among us created much media interest. Most news reports claimed that Medvedev was simply joking. His apparent reference to the Men In Black movie as a source of information on a super secret agency that monitors extraterrestrials on Earth was commonly cited as key evidence that he was in fact joking. The reasoning is that no political leader would refer reporters to a comedy to clarify national policy. It has now emerged that Medvedev was not referring to the Men in Black comedy after all, but to a recent Russian television documentary titled Men in Black that reveals many details about an extensive cover up of extraterrestrial life visiting Earth.
However, a more accurate translation of what Medvedev actually said about the Men in Black phenomenon was: You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name. So Medvedev was referring to a Russian documentary film titled Men in Black, not the Hollywood blockbuster by the same name...
Russian Men In Black (MIB) documentary, a number of prominent UFO cases in Russia and the USA are discussed. The Roswell UFO crash is covered, along with a number of extraterrestrial abduction cases, and UFOs disabling nuclear weapons facilities. The documentary examines testimony that extraterrestrial bases have been established on Earth, and that some are in restricted US military areas with the full knowledge of the Pentagon. The documentary even goes on to seriously discuss President Eisenhowers alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, where agreements were reached with some of the visitors giving them permission to take some of the Earths resources in exchange for advanced technology...

At least you don’t have GUILT! (cue: Toy Story)
Miss Beaky, A.K.A. Peaches, gets truly angry if we remove the chewed up old perch from her cage.
She makes these noises:

The Nanny was with my mother in one house or another for a good 40 years. Long before I was even born. She was a “fixture” and I can’t recall my childhood without her.
That was cute!
I’m off to Walmart to get more Bison Chow. If I don’t come back, probably the kudzu swallowed me!
Yes, that bird did growl, then she did the “Scree-URK!” noise.
Then she did teh “Yat-yat-yat-yat-yat!”
Peaches does that, it is territorial nesting behavior.
Peaches isn’t a lutino peachface though, she’s teh standard green.
But still, those noises were mighty familiar..
Amphibious purpleknot strifeweed.
If you’re not back in three days, we’ll send out the Kitteh Militia.
:o])
The cage I have is probably large enough for that conure (?) but Stiggy is still alive and well, and I doubt he would enjoy company of that size...
I do have a smaller cage for The Stig for travel, but...what if I want to take off for a week? Who will volunteer to watch both birds? I’ll stick with what I have, thanks.
Still...the noise would be...um...interesting, I think.
Not conure, small hook billed parrot.
Lovebirds are small parrots, oddly enough.
About the same size as a budgie/parakeet.
Lovebirds tend to get territorial.
And destructive.
They love to chew stuff to tiny bits and shreds.
So you have to get sed to replacing toys exceedingly often.
The perch that was replaced by the wooden one was an artifical perch of what looked like molded sawdust. It fell apart, and not from usage. I’m sure it just dried out to where it lost its integrity. So I bought a wooden one, and Stiggy likes it.
I’ve had finches and canaries, but the parakeet is the largest bird I’ve owned. I may be adventurous in the future and find something else, but not right now.
Peaches, being a lovebird, is “Constant noise and activity from when she wakes up to the time she goes to sleep.”
In the wild, lovebirds make “I’m here, nothing ate me.” calls upon waking up.
The rest of the flock makes similar calls, and then they go out to eat fruit, seeds, bugs, and planted crops sometimes.
She very often sets off the outdoor birds.
She has a local bluejay who comes over to talk to her.
She makes him shriek and howl, makes her fluff up her feathers in triumph.
I survived.
Obviously, you have not heard about The Church of Bob.
I went grocery shopping with my wife and daughter. I bought two boxes of cereal and my bill was a hundred and thirty-three dollars.
Maybe I should switch to oatmeal.
Just a random observation I wanted documented. It’s a goal. Like perfection in any other field, a goal that is never actually achieved, but only approximated.
“I survived the Facebood Owrk!”
And all I got was this worthless tagline!
LOL!
Well, I did notice.
And I made a Bumber Sticker out of it.
Stiggy loves the birds on the TV because right now, there are few outside the window in the tree.
(My poor scraggly little feathered friend.)
