18. That sort of thing happens in Japan every year

Various Japanese prefectures (states) have advisories about bird deaths on their websites, and are attributing the deaths to a number of causes, including avian influenza, poisoning, injury, scarce food resources

See, everything is just fine. Move along now, nothing to see here. (Because it's now all under the surface.)

11. Overactive imaginations. Normal processes occurring.

13. Lol. The omniscient robcon hath spoken.

14. As long as they're not wrapped in a newspaper and dropped at my door, I'm fine.
