  3. this is funny in so many ways. the lawyer attacked by the birds, the fact it's in houston...even the birds realize texas needs a good ass kicking... grackles Wed May 18, 7:24 AM ET HOUSTON - Like a scene from the horror movie "The Birds," large black grackles are swooping down on downtown Houston and attacking people's heads, hair and backs. Authorities closed off a sidewalk after the aggressive birds, which can have 2-foot wingspans, flew out of magnolia trees Monday in front of the County Administration Building. "They were just going crazy," said constable Wilbert Jue, who works at the building. "They were attacking everybody that walked by." The grackles zeroed in on a lawyer who shooed a bird away before he tripped and injured his face, Jue said. The lawyer was treated for several cuts. It appears that the birds are protecting their offspring. On Monday a young grackle had fallen out of its nest and adult birds attacked people who got too close, Jue said. Another bird attacked a deputy county clerk.

  23. denali incident Climber learns costly lesson on a punishing Mount McKinley CRAIG MEDRED; Anchorage Daily News Last updated: May 15th, 2005 02:40 AM EVAN R. STEINHAUSER/ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS His native Italy is shipping Mount McKinley climber David Bergamin a new passport, but he’s dependent on the kindness of Alaskan strangers, it appears, to replace his plane ticket home. ANCHORAGE – High on the slopes of Mount McKinley, Italian climber David Bergamin made a tiny mistake that can prove costly, even deadly, in the harsh environment surrounding the continent’s tallest peak. Safely back in Anchorage now, Bergamin finds himself a temporarily penniless and unidentifiable foreigner, but he’s lucky. He’s alive. Two Ohio climbers lost their lives Tuesday on the mountain because of what appears to be something as simple as a slip or a stumble. National Park Service rangers are still trying to determine how 55-year-old identical twin brothers Jerry and Terry Humphrey fell to their deaths. Against such tragedy, Bergamin’s loss of a passport, a plane ticket, spare food, extra fuel and other gear at the Motorcycle Hill camp near 11,000 feet might seem insignificant. But it illustrates how little mistakes can quickly become big problems on cold, snowy McKinley. On his way to the mountain’s 20,320-foot summit in April, Bergamin cached his passport, cash, plane ticket, spare food, extra fuel and other gear in a pit at a camp site.
  24. Big time is a 5/25 is better for me. golden gardens when it isn't going to dump rain!!!
