Bush was a cheerleader.. hahah! and BAGPIPE BANDS? what is this world coming to? are there more scottish people in the U.S. that they have to start bagpipe bands in the U.S. instead of in Scotland? hahaha..

And one time, i watched a bird fly into a window.. fall to the ground.. it was just laying there for like 15 minutes.. and i thought it was dead, and i opened the door, in a split second the bird was up, and getting ready to fly away.. scared the crap outta me :)
