fearsome birds

[Lori Jones]

> > IT IS BETTER TO FALL UPON YOUR OWN SWORD 
THAN TO OFFEND A CRANE!!!!!!

One could speak expansively on this subject (what with all the birds 
running around this kingdom).  I'd just like to say, in keeping with 
the spirit of the day, that I've always been most afraid of 
Snipes.  They attack most ferociously when you least expect it.  Er, 
uh, at least that's what I've heard about them.

(The one for whom falling on her sword holds no particular degree of 
difficulty... Now managing to hit onesself in the face (unarmored) - 
*that's* difficult.  Not that I'm admitting to ever having done such 
a thing..... :-)
