#3 RB, you really don't have the hang of this media thing. Instead of correcting your mistake and apologizing, if you worked at CBS News you would have posted a memo from Raptor in which he admits to being a troll. If you were Maureen Dowd [God forbid], you wouldn't have posted a correction at all. If you were the Washington Post, you would have posted the correction to a thread from 2003.

#5 No problem,Robin.But you did have me wondering what I could of said that was so horrible.There are few insults that are worse than being labeled a Troll.If I was Dowd I would just shoot myself,just so I could put myself out of your misry.

#8 I live in the heart of Colorado Springs, yet there's a sparrow hawk that nests in a tree two streets over. I frequently see the female flying by in the summer with mice and other small rodents to feed her chicks. I know they've nested in that same cottonwood for at least three years.

And there IS a troll that lives a couple of houses up on the next street over. Grouchy old $&&%&$&%*&45! Isn't Raptor, though...

#9 We've got a bunch of Mockeringbird Trolls here. They always have some gripe.

#10 'Tis said that Mockingbirds still sing the songs of the dinosaurs :-) The mockingbird that perches on my mailbox hasn't sung to me yet, though, so I can't say for certain.
