5/26/2004: Pigeon ruler

Late today and so I'm posting something really light. The danger of a free press is that a photographer has the freedom to shoot and crop something up that makes it look as if your army is run by a pigeon overlord.

"Stand as I address you soldiers!"

Or that there is such a great hatred of the evil pigeon that he must face the firing squad. gulp. Give the poor bastard a smoke.

'TTeeeennnnshun!

"Gentlemen, yesterday's cooooo d'état has given me supreme power. We will now shoot all the cats. My enemies will be dipped in cement and left standing in parks as statues. All bakeries will now be under state control. Everyone will speak Pigeon English on penalty of flogging..."

So much spit&polish, so little poop.

This is kind of how I imagined it would be like in Elbonia.

Kinda reminds me of the guy walking down the street with a shopping bag, standing off the tanks headed for Tiananmen Square.

Very brave.

I see the photographer also captured a shot of the secret "stealth pigeon" air force.

Don't cry for me Argentina. (Emphasis on the back ground music)

I, for one, welcome our new pigeon Overlord

people wonder why I like photography so much, this is utter gold.

Hee. They're even color-coordinated.

beestie, you're a funny sonofabitch.

I bet the band was playing

Hail to the Peep

Freebird!



...and the presidential limousine was a coop de ville!

What's that in the upper left corner? Looks like an eel on the soldiers boots or something in the air thrown in General Byrd's direction...

bird, blurred by the apature is my guess.

That's the stealth pigeon, wolf reffered to.
