MVG-
I just had a horrible thought. What if our sea gull president was corrupted by someone throwing bread crumbs in one pasture and not the other?

Hmm, yeah, good point Doma – it would force them to participate and to think a bit more deeply than “would you like chips?”

Sea gull for President!
Indepent thinker!
Tireless worker!
An example for us all!

I think that we’re already (a lot) like sea gull, aren’t we?

By the way, MVG,

This could be a great party game story. You know, the kind that begin with a dilemma (too many people on a life boat, etc.) and ask participants to provide a solution.

In this case, what’s wanted is not a solution but an explanation.
It elicits participation, the key to any good party.

And, thank God for that.
Iâ€™m glad to take a breather from politics.

LOL – you make that sound as if posts about politics are the downside of TMV…

I hope the discussionn doesnâ€™t involve speculations about whether the seagull was a Rep or a Dem.

Lets see:
- (s)he didn’t ask another animal to bring him to the other side (in other words: do the work for him) so not a Dem
- (s)he didn’t pull out a gun and tell another animal to bring him to the other side… so not a Rep

I guess this sea gull was an Independent.

Seagulls are indeed persistent–although the ones we see here in the Midwest are usually trying to get at a pile of refuse. Odd that they should come so far inland for garbage, but as I said…persistent.
