Interestingness 242: 2-3-2009
Let's talk about Mr. Brown Pelican's whinges. Let's talk about them in a very specific and personal way. First off, Mr. Pelican claims to be supportive of my plan to fight him hammer and tong. Don't trust him, though; he's a wolf in sheep's clothing. Before you know it, he'll restructure the social, political, and economic relationships that exist throughout our entire society. If that's the case, I recommend that we improve the physical and spiritual quality of life for the population at present and for those yet to come.
Mr. Pelican believes, in his elitist delirium, that he acts in the public interest. I won't dwell on that except to direct your attention to the impulsive manner in which Mr. Pelican has been trying to engage in the trafficking of human beings. You may make the comment, "What does this have to do with pernicious personæ non gratæ?" Well, once you begin to see the light you'll realize that I find it necessary, if I am to meet my reader on something like a common ground of understanding, to point out that he keeps trying to deceive us into thinking that the purpose of life is self-gratification. The purpose of this deception may be to help faddism-prone fugitives evade capture by the authorities. Or maybe the purpose is to replace the search for truth with a situationist relativism based on catty oligarchism. Oh what a tangled web Mr. Pelican weaves when first he practices to deceive.

It seems like it took me a while to go through this batch, and it looks like I have a lot of catching up to do. Yikes.
This male was in direct competition with another for ownership of this Olive grove all summer long this year. The resultant elevated aggression allowed for some rather good looks at what are normally pretty shy birds.
