Angry Anyone want a bird...

So, this morning, I got up, got Pita out of his cage, gave him lots of hugs & morning kisses. Made him scarambled eggs for breakfast, sat down at the PC, and started my morning routine. I thought I'd give him a treat and "serve" him breakfast, on his playgym, so he could look out the window, and enjoy the morning sun. So, he's happily eating, making his happy noises, and I'm on the PC. All of a sudden the picture on my monitor goes all wonky, and I hear this hissing noise....I look up, and my little featherd angel, had just pooped on the back end of my monitor, and shorted it out. I sat there stunned.....OK, it was a 10 year old monitor, and I have been wanting a new flat screen...but not today!

As, I looked at my little bundle of feathers, he looks at me, and says, in his sweetest voice...."good boy"

So, here I am, typing this on my brand new, ViewSonic, 19", LCD, flat screen, monitor.

That was $250.00 poop.

The End.

Better ending for your story:

"A $250.00 poop - PRICELESS"

Cute story. Maybe not for you.... but I thought it was hysterical!

aww man! i feel your pain. shadow likes to walk all over my laptop even though hes not allowed to. he has never pooped on it, but he did put a BIG scratch in my screen.
i have a $2,500 powerbook g4 (apple) (which was a present from my mom and dad when i graduated high school)
and i am now a poor college student....
so needless to say, the scratch will not be fixed ....

i feel the pain gbird!

Sorry to laugh but the same thing happened to me. It wasn't one of the fids but my duck that I had. She liked to sit on my computer while I typed. I would cover it with a towel just in case. Well, one day the towel fell off & I didn't know it. Lets just say that the screen went black & that was that. I took it to Best Buy, they opened it up & said, What the hell is that ****. I looked at them & said, thats exactly what it is, ****!! They couldn't fix it. I had to get a new one. Crystal

Crystal - would LOVE to see a picture of your duck sitting on your computer. That's hysterical! Do the ducks swim in the bathtub?

I only have my crippled one left & yes she swims in the tub. I don't think I have any pic's. After that happened, I didn't let them up there. Thats to much money to let it be used as a perch. Crystal

LOL, I have learned to keep the laptop screen tilted back so when they sit on it, the poop doesn't hit the back of the screen. And the have to be facing me at all times!

You mean to tell me that all I have to do to get a new monitor is have one of the goons poop on it?! GEEZ! Why didn't _I_ think of that??! LOL!

I'll let you know if it works later this weekend....
