I was idly cruising CNN when I arrived home from a lovely drunken evening with friends, when I stumbled upon what I *thought* was a joke: an ad for a campaign to make the Parrot the state bird of California, replacing the Quail. And I stumbled upon this website.

I've seen some stupid bullshit in my day -- particularly in my time in California with the never-ending prop's and voter referendums -- but this is SOME BULLSHIT. Millions of dollars are probably being spent on this ridiculous, outrageous, pathetic campaign. Shame on them, for wasting our time and money! Shame!
