area. It was like having a 747 coming at us at close range.
As the article says, ducks and geese will not mess with a swan. Of
course the so called "Canadian Geese" are a huge pest also, and
should now be called American geese since most of them haven't flown
north in years.

Both species should be targeted and destroyed...

I'd be pleased to read an AP item datelined in your town stating that a
short greaseball with a ponytail was pecked to death by a wedge of
swans, who then left the scene of the assault laughing loudly.


Harry the biological scientist talking about swans "laughing"!!!!

Are you on Mary Jane, Coke, or some new designer drug your wife
introduced you to?


Probably something prescription, the guy is barely capable of getting
through the day...



I'm not a heart patient like you are, little dungball. The only "med" I
take is an OTC multivitamin.


Then maybe you should rethink that, what with your paranoia, narcissism
and cowardice.....

Kill 'em, kill 'em all...they interfered with a boat ride.


And Harry fails miserably to see the point, as usual. Harry do you want
to save the Zebra Mussels from death, too? How about Pythons in south
FL? Snakehead fish? Asian carp? The list goes on!

Harry shows his scientific side, thinking that invasive species should
be protected and preserved! Harry, need some Zebra Mussels to put in
waterways?

or Asian carp or sea cow or kudzu or African bees or Dutch elm disease.
All part of Obama's plan to destroy America.

Wait till mussel seeds get into his engine and grow. He'll see the point
then.

First you gotta have the boat. Then you gotta have the engine.

Actually, herring, you have to have your boat in the water for the
mussels to attach. So, you have no worries.

Absolutely not. My boat is on a trailer in the marina, all snug as a bug in a rug.

Where's yours? Winterized yet?
