I don't know about you, but I'm starting to get very nervous about all these so-called anomalies of nature that keep occurring everywhere. Not long ago, large numbers of birds began falling out of the sky, in more than one location across the globe. I keep hearing that it was all caused by a series of fireworks that somehow induced a state of confusion in the birds. Well, excuse me if I'm a little skeptical. About the only time I've ever seen fireworks induce a state of confusion was when I once had a little too much to drink at a fourth-of-July celebration. I'm thinking there might be more to it.
