Interesting...
The first thought that comes to mind is JPC, Sr. He doesn't work, he's not attractive, he doesn't have a popular voice and I'm paying taxes to support him. He does provide entertainment however. And sure ugly people should drive convertibles, just don't put the top down unless you're in your driveway making the vroom vroom noise. And what the heck does this have to do with bird feeders? Oh yes, give the ugly birds a forum on which they can profess their plight, they have been unjustly treated all their lives.

Why?

"Sorry, squirrels and ugly birds - you guys have to starve because I only like the pretty birds."

This is rather Hitler-esque and Aryan, don't you think?

You bored V?

I think I might set up a squirrel feeder. I haven't seen any squirrels since we moved here. I miss them.
