Authorities cleaned up more than 25 sick or dead birds that apparently had eaten poisoned corn from the roof of a nearby bank branch.

All the world seems in tune
On a spring afternoon,
When we're poisoning pigeons in the park.
Every Sunday you'll see
My sweetheart and me,
As we poison the pigeons in the park. Sing along HERE.

McMillen said the bank hired an exterminator to handle its pigeon problem after a bird entered the bank and defecated on a customer. Looks like Herb Tarlek might have been the customer in question. Check out his suit jacket. It looks like he was hit by several pigeons before they went on to that bird coop in the sky.

Actually it was Mr. Carlson who said "As God is my witness, I though turkeys could fly". Les Nessman was reporting on the street about the turkeys flying from the sky. His most memorable quote from the episode was "Oh the humanity!"

Ah--that's right. One of the funniest moments ever in TV.
