wow, I totally thought we were talking about a dog.  Maybe that's why everyone was ignoring me... It seems I should pay more attention.  Anyway, maybe if you replace the paper with birdseed it would be a fair trade...

I had time to correct it, and I COULD give it back--it's just filled with holes (beyond the logical ones normal of a freshman paper.)  I think I'll just 'forget' to give it back, and se what he has to say about it.  It wasn't a major paper--just a smaller response-style one.

Gorgon: yeah, he's a bird.  Guess we all just assumed everyone knew that.  ;o)

It'd probably be easier to get away with bringing a bird to class than a dog.

Hence my confusion... and random comments about neighbors lawns and buning paper bags, which would not work with birdie doo doo.
