It's about birding, stupid!
For the first time ever, a non-birding entry. Just found out that some cretinous arse of an American was stupid enough to take exception to my choice of site-counter, and felt sufficiently incensed to post an abusive comment on the end of the last diary entry...
"What are you some kind of asshole? This is a birding site. Not a place for your lazy ass way of advertising your sleazy law practice if you can call it that!!!"

Okay you stupid hick, one or two home truthes - firstly it's a free site counter, so if it comes with an advert for a company entirely unrelated to me then that's none of my business; secondly if you're imbecilic enough to blindly click on every link you find (even the site counter), then you're clearly the sort of credulous tosser who takes everything at face value (presumably someone who voted the chimp-faced environment and liberty-hating president back in again without thinking to ask yourself some searching questions); and finally as for saying that this site has nothing to do with birding, I suggest you take the time to actually read the contents of the blog rather than choosing to wildly click on the pretty little pictures instead and jumping to laughably wrong conclusions.
Go and look at some porn sites instead of bothering me with your ill-conceived drivel. And I'll stick to birding.
I should just point out that almost every American I've met has been charm personified, and whoever this weirdo was is clearly not representative of his or her countrymen. (How did I know our correspondent is American - easy - the frequent and quaint use of "ass" - to us Brits an ass is some kind of donkey; an arse is the sort of person who feels the need to write abusive comments on a well-intentioned birding weblog. A hunch confirmed by a little elementary online research - our friend viewed this blog from the location "12 November 18:58 EarthLink, San Francisco, United States".
But just for fun, you can contact our simple American friend via their thoughtfully provided email address - isn't technology a wonderful thing?
I'm sure they'd love to hear your views on American foreign policy or disregard for the environment... or just any random rant you might have - after all, if they're happy to dish out some wildly ill-conceived abuse, I'm sure they'll enjoy getting some back in return.

Disclaimer for the terminally slow-witted - this is nothing to do with the Aurora Borealis content - it's a site counter! Good grief, some people...
Hi. Yes it's true. We have lots of asses here in the USA. Gee-dub got 51% of the vote. Now that's a lot of asses. Keep up the good work. I enjoy your colorful and somewhat quirky ramblings. Wish I could see some of your birds someday. Dan in south Texas
