King o the mountain -- I'm going to start calling him that.  Mag, the cage is
almost six feet tall.  It is already on the floor.  I need a raised task
chair, that might help to solve some of this problem.  I had one in the
kitchen that was a little bit taller, but the thing broke.  It was great too,
darn it!  I could sit on it backwards and rest forward against the chair back
(if that makes sense) to work.  I could work for longer periods of time
without back pain, and this could be exactly what I need for Bundy.  This
time I'm just going to have to invest in a better quality chair.  I wonder
how tall they come -- need to do some research.  OH -- dental assistant's
chairs!  I'll bet they cost a fortune though.

Blue tit -- it's a little bird in the UK.  I think it's a woodland species,
but should look it up to be sure.  They have been known for their ability to
remove the tops of cream containers that are delivered door to door, to get
the cream on the inside of the lid.  I couldn't resist the joke though.  Of
course, we have the tit mouse here.

Tits are everywhere!  :-D

The owner of one of the bird store franchises I was connected with had a
party for all the other bird store franchise owners one Saturday night.
Since the party was in his own store, he put a sign up on the counter for the
duration of the party that read "Buy Your Seed from Us -- We Get Bigger Tits
and Peckers!"

I don't know about you, but I feel edified.
