This one is about 5 feet long. We need to get you a pistola. I think we'll need the best minds. Like crows, frinstance.

Actually, with a spudgun for crows, you can weed and feed at the same time. There is a certain insanely silly thrill to wielding such a fooper. "You ready?" Your feet are braced. Your target acquired, you think. "Yes." BAM!!! Impact and launch are the same noise. It's not girl stuff. Even Ken's wife disapproves. Not sure why they do that. But spudguns are surely deadly. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Fred, this is actually one of the best ideas I have seen in about 40 years. As a matter of fact, I am, as we speak, purchasing the weapon for the precise reason you have outlined. I think it is time that Dad gave Luke some lessons in marksmanship. In the event that the Save the Crows faction reads this, I'll be very clear about it. I feed birds. I feed them bread that is given to me by the old lady across the street, who gets the bread from the bakery for free because it is old. The old lady thinks she is helping out by passing out Free Bread to the neighbors. I have not the heart to tell her that I would not eat the bread even if it were fresh, which it is not. But there are a lot of birds that like it. All different kinds of birds. Some of these birds are bullies, who, even when they have stuffed themselves, won't let other birds come near the bread. I think you know what I am talking about.
