Photo courtesy of Ginger Snap It’s my first day of vacation and I spent it happily working on an article for BIRD TALK and rather unhappily, but vigorously washing the floor. I came up with this cool idea for writing an article about Bird People who get tattoos of their birds. As I do not [...]

I don’t often see things that I absolutely adore. This includes birds, sofas and potential dating material. However, when I got an email from Restoration Hardware containing photos of this little beauty, I fell in love. I’m sorry, but I can’t imagine a better use for such a crappy cage. The use of this terribly designed [...]

Photo found here: Top News You Can Use A bit of a crush? Well, yes. His work is poetic, his products world-shaking, and his style is direct. His taste is superb and his products? They changed the world. Steve Jobs resigned from Apple Inc. yesterday and I am bereft. I feel as though I lost [...]

See? I have the official “Writer’s Shirt” and everything! Being a writer is not all skittles and beer.

This website has Moleskine Journals: [...]

I haven’t been posting at all in the last couple of weeks due to some mitigating circumstances. Let’s see: annual training in Dallas so I get to keep my job, a work schedule from hell, laptop computer issues, just all kinds of stuff kept cropping up that prevented me from sitting down and cranking out [...]

Warning: Photos are graphic and disturbing. If you have a sensitive stomach, read this in the bathroom. And by the way, I selected the most tasteful photos sent to me. First, you’re horrified. You can’t believe what you’re seeing. It’s like watching a traffic accident. Then, you cry. Finally, you get really angry. I’m talking [...]

I recieved a phone call from Jacque Johnson at Best Friends on Sunday. I would like you to carefully consider sending just five or ten dollars to this fledgling rescue to help out these birds. It’s a horrible situation and they desperately need our help. Just giving up one Starbucks latte would make an enormous [...]

After adopting 20 macaws, Heidi has to figure out how to efficiently care for them while trying to make enough money to support herself and her flock. Now this [...]
