    Wow, Judy, I didn't see the second parrot up there behind the pink based sand (or whatever) container. Thank you. I think he would trade two parrots for an organ grinder monkey.

    The last organ grinder I saw was in France and the fellow there had a cat. The cat was collared and tied to his organ.

    That sounds like a bad breakup line, Jim. "I need a little space, we're too coalesced." :D Loved your story. I posted that photo (not mine, I found it on Morguefile)and never noticed the 2nd parrot until I went to write my entries today.

    A monkey would definitely go better with an organ grinder than do parrots! Unique use of "coalesce," Jim.
