This must be a joke, please

From the Sunday Herald Sun:

PIGEON LOCKED UP
Indian police are holding a pigeon under armed guard and have banned anyone from visiting it in the Punjab after it was caught on an alleged spying mission for arch rival and neighbour Pakistan.

Pure Peter Sellers.

I guess it'll talk eventually, become a stool pigeon.
Why didn't they just put two Pakis in a cow costume?

Robbbert, Comedy Gold Award!

R.H. said...

Thanks. I always knew.


(just send the gold)

R.H. said...

Off to bingo tonight, if I hit the jackpot I'm taking you out.

River said...

Did the pigeon have a spycam strapped under its wing?

Louise Bowers said...

Ah! The old spy in the pigeon costume trick.

Jayne said...

Birdie num nums?

Ann ODyne said...

'a pigeon under armed guard and have banned anyone from visiting it' ...

and how many visitors do the other pigeons get?

JahTeh said...

River, isn't it crazy?

LL, Maxwell could have thought this one up.

Jayne, That's probably where it will end up, the reverse of the spy eating the secret message.

Annie O, so funny but Robbert still has the gold award.

R.H. said...

Jahteh, what I should have replied upon getting this award has been bothering me:

'Thanks, from you it's a huge compliment.'

"Mason Street blocked yesterday near Melbourne Road. Huge crane out on road, helping build apa-a-a-artments. Sign out front says "Starting at $380,000" (one bedroom). OH how we laughed! Go robots, you couldn't get closer to Newport station except live on the fucking platform. Every empty factory, every inch of land along rail line from Newport to Williamstown, stacked with doll houses and stupid apa-a-a-artments."

Who wrote that? Good heavens, how lively!

Well darlings I went past there yesterday. A sticker across the sign says: 100% Sold. How's that. And foundations still under construction.
Well my thought is this, if all Melbourne -the entire metro area- was apa-a-a-a-artments: miles of concrete, no backyards, gardens, little greenery, would you want to live -at all?

R.H. said...

I have to slow down, don't want to go mad before I get rich.

R.H. said...

My biographical subject, typical schizophrenic: layers of clothing. Walking down High Street Thornbury "It's a two jumper day," he says, smug and motheaten. "And a three dog night," I said, "But I've only got two."
Gave him a laugh, poor bastard.

anything but an actual effing
BLOG OF YOUR OWN instead of being the cuckoo in everybody else's nest*.


Only two of your eight comments are appropriate.

* an avian reference thereby keeping On Topic, another thing you don't seem to be able to do.

Please excuse this outburst JahTeh, it is very rude to snipe at Commentors on a blog that's not one's own, and that is another crime RH commits. He should be in the slammer with that pigeon.

JahTeh said...

Melbourne Mod, what have you got against innocent until proven guilty pigeons?

Rh might not have been completely OT considering how many pigeons will probably seek asylum on top of that apartment block, if Tony Abbott doesn't deport them first.

JahTeh said...

Sorry MM, some of my comment disappeared, it was said in humour and sympathy with the pigeon.

R.H. said...

OOOOOH!- It's the BLOG POLICE!

"RH said...(grumble grumble grumble..)"

Well look, if people didn't like it I wouldn't do it. Okay? Willie Nelson has cut his pigtail off, cry over that.

R.H. said...

There's a woman on Deal Or No Deal tonight, looks like Edna Everage. (Like a bloke, anyway.)
If you want the truth I decided to stop these OT comments and was doing okay, but I get emails egging me on -the dirty swine.

JahTeh said...

I thought Willie Nelson died?

R.H. said...

Dennis Hopper died. Willie threw himself under a car years ago but survived*.

-Robert.

*The car was moving, not parked. (For Lord Whatsisname)

Middle Child said...

I wonder was it wing cuffed...allowed a phone call...and if found guilty will it be shot or hung???

JahTeh said...

Therese, I still get a picture in my mind of Peter Sellers locking up the pigeon and reading it its rights.

tony abbott - smuggling budgies AND deporting pigeons.
