Maybe wind chimes
...or anything that creates a noise may deter her. Your doors are a mirror to birds. Try haning objects in front of the door (on the outside) that will sway in the wind but not crash into the glass. String brightly colored cardboard, posterboard, beads, those shiny pinwheels you can find at the checkout counter at Wal-Mart, etc. It will enhance the beauty of your home, endear your neighbors to you and hopefully put an end to the Kamikaze Cardinal. An added benefit would be watching your cats go mental trying to grab the swinging things from the inside.

Okay, I have to tell a story about the wind and ashes
My uncle used to fly planes in the Air Force. He is now 77 so this was quite some time ago. When a friend died he wanted to be cremated and have his ashes scattered from a plane (also a pilot) over the ocean. Uncle Jack and his buddies took him up and opened a door over the ocean, the wind blew all the ashes right back into the plane (a cargo plane) and over all the friends. I really hope no one is offended by this. My mother was also cremated and her ashes were sprinkeled in the ocean (her request) and she just loved to tell this story.
Can someone tell me with children when do most people usually wind up taking their
vacations. I am having a hard time right now getting a hotel and am thinking once the Summer vacations start dwindling it may help.
-23, lots of artic wind, and colder still tomorrow.

Today in Michigan it's a balmy 6 degrees with -18 wind chill
With those kind of temperatures, today thermostat is on 70 and that's comfortable. But I have on sweat pants, a sweatshirt, and warm wooly socks. Usually it's at 68 and 62 at night.
19 degrees in west Michigan right now. -8 wind chill. BRRRR..nm

I wonder how they catch the
//
me, three. I seem to catch most of the headlines here
and then I'll Google if I want to follow up. I never watch TV.
Ooh, deadliest catch
My husband and son have just gotten into watching that. I usually work that time of night but they seem to be really into it and it makes me curious about it. I will have to check it out. When you mentioned Emergency it reminded me that I love to watch the ER shows on discovery at night. Sometimes I can catch them before bed. I feel like I get to SEE what I type all day long. :)
Many catch 22s in life
Here's a few I've run across in the course of my life...
You can't get a job without experience...but how do you get work experience without a job?
You can't get credit unless you don't need it...but without it how do you get in a position to not need it?
You can't get a date with a hottie unless you're a hottie, but if you try to date people that aren't hotties, they refuse to date you because they want to date a hottie....
Play by the rules, work hard and life will be golden...and when that doesn't work out because lazy rule-breakes stole all the gold, its your fault, you must not have been trying hard enough.
Life isn't fair. Get used to the idea. And keep trying anyway.
Anybody else catch the little LOST show
that was on last night? It was the writers or producers or something discussing the show. They must read the message boards, like the ABC one and possibly the AOL one, and see all the fan theories. I only saw it because we have DVR set up, and it recorded. I'm going to watch it again with DH.
I suppose there will be a recap of it on the LOST website if you missed it.
Did you catch the photo on Fox of her taken out of her estate?
Gosh, she looks like you or me, did not seem like she had time to have her makeup done professionally before her next 15 minutes. Not hot.

Gonna catch flak for this, but what I would do
is get a bunch of switches and light his legs up any and every time he wants to be as bad as you are saying. I probably could guarantee with the sting you are not going to have to put up with that type of behavior day after day. Of course, with people trying to be so politically correct they will say no spanking/switching/beating, etc., etc. but YOU are the one having to deal with this out of control child.
My docs seem to be playing catch-up. I see it as

Terriers also love to catch
mice, but not everybody wants to live with a terrier. You have to be quite the confident leader with a terrier, and willing to keep him exercised.
Anyone catch the Osbournes last night after
American Idol? I have to say I needed a really good laugh and got one during that show. I thought it was hilarious. I thought Sharon looked really great after her bout with cancer.
just keep practicing the word NO. She'll catch on.
she's a user, but you don't have to let her. all up to you. good luck. stay strong. :8)
I catch LAInk a lot because I am so totally opposite all

I saw the bird story, but didn't catch
what was odd about it. You saw a huge bird on a roof in Florida, but I've been to Florida and there are some really big birds there, just like on our coast here in NC. I did't catch what was odd about it.
Did anyone catch this? "is pregnant, has given birth" LOL sm
One is a pregnant woman who has given birth to a healthy baby; he declined to give any other details, including locations.
She 'IS' pregnant but yet she has given birth! Wow, she must be pregnant with twins and only one has delivered thus far, LOL!! Don't ya just love our editing skills as an MT...
Can't ever catch a break! Missed court date for
I got a ticket 4 days before Christmas for having an expired tag (had planned to get it taken care of when my income taxes came in - my fault, but crap, I've been broke the whole year!). So I got the tag renewed the next day because the cop said they would be looking again after New Year's to write another ticket (have seen that my city has had a 25% increase in tickets written in the last month - like they need the revenue!). So, all I had for my little one was a PlayDough activity center under the tree $15, and a pink umbrella and some candy in the stocking from Santa. She was happy, though.
I've had that **??@$ ticket next to my monitor to look at it every day for the last 2 months to remind myself to go before the judge and ask for an extension of paying it until Friday when my check comes in. I have literally been living paycheck to paycheck, sometimes with only $8 in my account in between. Well, tomorrow I am scheduled to go to a different court to get a child support order (money I'll never see anyway), and I picked up my big orange folder to put my income tax return in it to take with me. Guess where I put it? Yup, right on top of that **??@$ ticket. Yup, I forgot to go to court last night. Was being bombarded with emails that my accounts could lose power due to the storm and all MTs needed to empty the systems. Now there is an arrest warrant out on me. I talked to a clerk at court and he told me to stay indoors until Friday, then come in and pay to have the warrant removed, then I can get a new date to pay the **??@$ ticket.
Well, I have to go to CS court tomorrow, but at least it is just a short hop onto the interstate and then quickly out of my city limits. If I can just make it till Friday, pay the warrant, maybe my karma will start changing. For the last 15 months, I feel like I am the little kid on Charlie Brown that walks around in a dust cloud. I have seen the inside of more court rooms in the last year than most people see in their lives with getting custody of GD. I must have done something really nasty to have this kind of karma for this long. Oh, well. They say when you're down, the only way to go is up. At least paying to have the warrant removed is less than the ticket and it gives me another month to come up with the money for that. I'm so broke, I can't even get drunk to forget my troubles! Maybe my luck will change by St. Patty's Day
p.s. I had to edit this message because I used the word s-t-u-p-i-d to describe that ticket and the website wouldn't let me use it, thus the **??@$ symbols !!
I love Nancy Grace. working, but will try to catch this one later
thanks for telling us about it!
Yes, sure you are correct, I didn't catch the 'An walking'..nm
'An walking'.
I regard myself as an 'grammarian.'
My mistakes are almost always just typos.
