The bizarre thing about this fiasco is the total cost of the rescue:
$10,000. The guy risked his own life, and the lives of the rescuers,
trying to save a parrot that cost him $2000. He used some seriously
poor judgment.

The taxpayers should be loading their shotguns right about now...

People have a whole different set of judgments when it comes to their
pets. Some of the whacko-s will take more care of Fluffy than their kids.
Some even think the pets are their kids. Agree, they should send him the
bill for the rescue. Same with mountain climbers that put themselves at
risk.


Did you see the guy during the interview talking about potty training the
bird? He looked like a Moonie on 'shrooms.
