Oh man the crows/ravens/whatever in Juneau were HILARIOUS, they enjoyed picking on the bears. I spent many an afternoon up by the glacier, watching them circle around over the bears that were fishing, waiting for the bears to get super into it, then diving down, pecking them on the rear end, and flying off laughing while the bear went nuts.

Ravens are assholes, but they're FUNNY assholes.

A medium once told me that the crow was my spirit animal. I like shiny things and am a semi-intelligent rear end in a top hat so sure, why not. I am also really good at getting other people to do work for me just like the crows, who have figured out how to get humans to do things like open nuts by dropping them on the road at intersections and letting cars run them over.

Dick, you should befriend a crow. It can hold your tools while you're under the truck, and it can eat spiders and wasps for you. Crows are omnivorous, they'll eat just about anything if it gets close enough.

They are frighteningly intelligent and can mimic speech more naturally than parrots. They also shape and use tools, understand Archimedes' principle, and have been successfully taught to use a vending machine. I insist that the phrase "dumb animals" means they cannot speak.

Plus their brains aren't smooth like many other birds. I believe they have the most surface area of any birds brain.

The corvids in AK are... Big, like "feel them land in the bed of your truck because it shakes the truck" big. And smart. And teach each other things such as faces, and who's done them right and who's done them wrong. It's loving eerie.

I once worked for a Papa John's in a small town (that's now a suburb). The paychecks got sent out from corporate via overnight UPS, addressed to the GM, but with the store address.

For some hosed reason they started delivering our paychecks to the GM's house in the next town (same driver handled that route). Fine on days the GM worked, annoying when he was off that day and didn't feel like bringing them in, really annoying after the GM got fired and the next batch of checks was still addressed to him.

Well, it's likely the courier is a local and probably knows that the property is normally unoccupied so they delivered it to someone they knew would get it to Danno.

Out of curiousity, what year was this? I've been working since 1997 and I have never received an actual cheque for my pay, except for one time in late 1999 when the upload to the bank didn't work for whatever reason so my boss paid us all by cheque then gave us a long lunch hour to go to the bank and deposit it. Direct deposit all the way, even when I worked casually as a factory hand or at a late-night petrol station.

My previous job that I left in January only gave us checks. Small-medium sized business that didn't even give us the option of direct deposit. It was dumb as hell.

Waffle house is never closed and you get your waffle in like 3 minutes. It cost 4 bucks with a coffee. They are amazing. The food is crap but any diner is serving you grease they scooped out of the fryer anyway.
