Camaros are meat eating predators!

I saw the Bird strike thread and today as I am driving to work a couple sparrows decide to plag tag witht the car and i swear it looked like my Camaro sucked one right out of the sky!!!!


I got in to work and had to use a pair of mechanical fingers to fish it out of the bottom of the Facia.

Camaro's are meat eating predators I tell yah!

Wow. Camaros just aren't what they used to be. They have SELF-AWARENESS now. They know the concept of death and are practicing it on the birds before us.

Is that the owl hood that so many people mention wanting?

If you also put a scarecow on it to ward off chickens, would the combination of cow and owl make it a cowl hood?

Hanging a dead bird from the front grill should help ward off other birds.

This really is a sign of the polution we are causing. First frogs with extra limbs now birds that fly into death. Well that is what our government would have us to believe isn't it?
