hi. couldn't resist adding another entry. forgive my enthusiasm. i'm new, you see. so this whole blogging thing is very exciting to me.
anyway, while bathing i was thinking about the saying "to kill 2 birds with one stone". i've always thought that there was something funny about that phrase, but i never actually took the time to sit down and delve into the depths of this mysterious phrase. anyway, this time i did. and i came up with 2 theories.

Tay's Law States That:

Theory #1:
One day, a mother bird was teaching her baby bird how to fly. so when the bird had more or less learnt how to fly, it flew. but big bird was still worried, so she flew behind her baby while it flew to keep an eye on it.
at the same time, tommy and jimmy were skipping stones across the reservoir. tommy lost. so he got angry and threw a stone as far as could (but not very high).
anyway, like i said, small bird had only more or less grasped the concepts of flying. so it was flying fairly low. and if you remember, big bird was following it, so big bird was flying low too. and if you remember some more, tommy threw the stone far, but not very high. so it was like this:

Stone--> Big bird flying--> Small bird flying

predictably, the stone hit big bird and since it had been thrown far, the tremendous force sent big bird shooting forward. big bird's beak poked into small bird, so small bird died. so one stone killed 2 birds.

Theory 2:
as we all know, migratory birds have a generous store of fats in thier body. so one day, tommy and jimmy were skipping stones across the reservoir. tommy lost. He got angry and threw a stone high (but not very far). the stone hit one fat bird and bounced off it, onto another fat bird. the initial force was not enough to kill either one of them. but since they have an abundant storage of fats, the stone was able to continue bouncing back and forth between them until they died of irritation. so one stone killed 2 birds.

makes sense huh? :)yea yea i know, no need to tell me i can be the next J.K.Rowling. my next story is going to be called "Larry Panner and the Mug of Water". ok fine, force yourself to laugh
