A fare-jumper and a seat-rider!



My daughter, when she was much younger, never could say "pigeon". She used to call them "shitgeons". My husband was like, "Yep".

  1. I remember a few years ago we had a seagull in the cab car on the LSW.

    I wonder if this little dude was as messy.

  2. Aw, yes, the shithawk. I am certain this pigeon put the pig in pigeon.

  3. I was at the African Lion Safari about 10 years ago with my son and then-wife. We went to some "Birds of Prey" exhibition they were putting on.

    The Zookeeper asked the crowd if they could name the five types of birds of prey. Anywho, as the crowd rhymed off the four that immediately came to mind, they stumbled on a fifth. The Zookeeper said "I'll give you a hint, it's a type of hawk". I leaned into my son, and whispered the name by which I have called "Seagulls" for as long as I can remember...I said "shithawks".

    Bless his soul, he yelled out "SHITHAWKS!" like he just won the lottery. hahaha
