How's this for irony, you have to have a special license to keep certain wildlife, but you don't need a license in most states to have a gun.  |

I have seen massive groups of these things during my morning runs recently.
I thought it may be an omen for the Super Bowl (Ravens) but then I thought about what would I think if there had been 500+ 18th century gold prospectors (49'ers) in my front yard.  |
