Apparently, 40 years ago today my brother John, who died of brain cancer at the age of 5, was born. I only know this because my sister posted this on her facebook status. Lets put aside a discussion on appropriateness of using facebook for this kind of announcement (I don't think it is all that bad I guess) and think about whether I am a terrible person for having no idea of the significance of this date. Am I an insensitive son? Or am I just too busy? Or perhaps I am just so zen that I always live in the moment and I don't worry about things that happen 34 years ago. Would that make me insensitive? Is this post trapped in some sort of insensitivity loop?

You gotta love this. Here I am with a history of the name "the Bird Man" trying to start a new blog, and some asshole's got a blog named "The Bird Man" and has posted all of one time and hasn't posted since 2002. 'The Bird Man' my ass, he is a damn pigeon man if you ask me.

Oh well...Dr. The Bird Man it is. Welcome.
