"A thing's a phallic symbol if it's longer than it's wide, And the Id goes marching on....

"Glory, glory psychotherapy, Glory, glory sexuality, Glory, glory, now we can be free, And the Id goes marching on...."

(From a Melanie album back when the Earth was young and so was I, sung to the tune of the "Battle Hymn of the Republic")

Somewhere up there, someone said "piyo,piyo" is Japanese for the sound birds make. "Pio, pio" is the Spanish. Do only English-speaking birds go "cheep, cheep?"

Have you heard about that terrible sickness going on now with the pet bird population?

Yup, it's called Chirpes. ...

It's a canarial disease. ...

And it's very hard to tweet.

Ok, ok. I'm leaving now.
