Birds of a Feather

 
 


"No, he does sit in his Mother's basement, eating cheese snacks, and blogging..."
 
 

Today will be a posting of a slightly different nature. In the picture above, is the Angry Bird, hard at work, writing a blog piece or working on his novel. Behind him, is his loyal and trusty companion, Tim the Turkey. It is late in the afternoon, and a well deserved scotch sits by his side.
 
So why in the world, with so many HUGE issues in the world, should anyone want to hear about the Angry Bird and his pet turkey? Because.....in the next few days, the Angry Bird will hit yet another milestone. He will hit 30,000 views on his blog post this month! He continues to be humbled and amazed that so many people take the time to read the ramblings of this aging old avian. In addition, one of his postings continues to be viewed at an alarming rate. The Poor,  http://veryangrybird.blogspot.com/2012/08/the-poor.html, is now over 2,300 views!
 
In case anyone is interested, some facts about the Angry Bird:
  • Happily married for 40 years
  • Two Adult daughters (no grandkids - just grand cats)
  • Retired Naval Officer (Crypto)
  • Retired industry (Defense and IT)
  • Christ follower
  • People lover
  • Constitution lover
  • Nature lover
  • Conservative (not Republican)

That being said, tomorrow will be another day. The Angry Bird will again be on the lookout with more social commentary, some of which will be sardonic or irreverent. The good shall be recognized and lauded, and the not so good shall be excoriated and eschewed. The powerful will be held accountable for their use or misuse of the power we have entrusted to them. Apostates, who attempt to hijack our basic Constitution rights, will be reminded in the most direct way, our rights come only from God, and not the government we elect. 

So the Angry Bird signs off for now, only to return tomorrow morning. Spring will soon be in air, as well a heated up 2014 political season. Very good fodder for any avian, especially this Very Angry one...
