now with 'real fake birds'
I know the Alfred Hitchcock 'The Birds' Barbie Doll has been blogged here and there, but man I just love it. Classic pop culture mix. What's not to love?
I guess it just come form me being a Hitchcock fan. Rear Window, Psycho, Vertigo and of course, The Birds. Oh man, that scene where they where they are walking out of the house and the birds are just sitting everywhere just watching. To this day if I notice a bird watching me I get a chill. Like they have some plan or something. The Birds came out in 1963 and it still has an effect! Jeez.
I guess that's the sign of a good flick, eh?
I should get some sleep, big day tomorrow.
Happy Chirstmas!
Just watch out for those birds..

Not many can say this...........we graduated from High School in 1963. Maybe the 'birds' were looking at me wondering how I ever did it! Dad

When we got to the Snook homestead the other night, his Mom warned us about some crazy little native bird that keeps pecking at the window, trying to get in. "Sure," we said. THAT SUCKER HAS NOT STOPPED FOR FOUR DAYS. He's pecking away at it right now. He wants to get in and kill us. I have no idea why that bird doesn't have brain damage. (Maybe he does.)
Oh! And they have a couple geese up here, and yesterday I had to shoo them away from the car so I could get something out. And the big gray one had a go at me! It lowered its head and came charging and I screamed and ran away.
The birds are hassling me, man.
