Today's Bird Humor: A man was married and happy, but he had one complaint. His wife was always caring for lost birds. One day, he came home to find a robin sleeping in the living room. In the dining room, a bluebird had its wing in a sling. He went to the kitchen, where he found his wife cuddling a half-frozen bird. "We've got to get these #*@#! birds out of here," he yelled. Replied his wife, "Please, dear, no bad language in front of the chilled wren."
