sorry visioneer one, i have to disagree with you on this.....

Concur with the shotgun method. Minimal cleanup and satisfying to boot. The Alka-Seltzer method is just plain cruel and should be reserved for rodents. Or bank managers

i have to assume you just don't have a lot of experience in this area, 'cause it's common knowledge that the Alka-Seltzer method works well on lawyers too!

au contraire. I'm the IT manager for the VI Dept. of Justice, based in the Attorney General's office. This place is absolutely filthy with lawyers... you can't swing a dead cat without hitting one.

Hell, they're so pervasive that I had to club three of the *******s just to get to my office this morning!

(SM - all in fun! No more nasty notes. Ca Va? bon.)

I hit one with my Audi driving back to Ogden from Wendover. While cruising at 110 MPH. Foom! Pass. side headlamp cluster gone, a chunk of bumper missing, half the the grille splintered, radiator damaged. Feathers and innards everywhere.

That winged ******* caused $2700 worth of damage to my car. Thank Ghod for State farm.
Guess if you would have maintained the 75 mph speed limit your damage would only have been $1841!

Out here in Arizona we have a surplus of rattlesnakes.....maybe we could send you a case or two. Why monkey around with stuffed ones when you could have the real thing?

From what I've been told, when the bird swallows the Alka-Seltzer, naturally it goes to their stomach. Well since birds can't burp like we can, the gases build up inside the birds stomach and eventually they will literally explode. I don't imagine it's a very kind death (or at least I wouldn't want to die like that.)

Default Gull muncher...

How about one of these? Powered by a 400 motor and very realistic in the air--full scale, too! I have heard they don't fly so bad, either.

It's called the "Tonbi", made by Craftroom in Japan. "Tonbi" means "Black Kite" (as in the bird) in Japanese.

Bet those little oyster-droppers would give this one the benefit of the doubt...
