Man: When one thinks of Richard Windamere Davenport, one thinks of a man whose name was almost synonymous with the buff-breasted flycatcher. Why? Why not bendire's thrasher or the bristle-thighed curlew? Good question. I rang up Dick's schoolmate Cecil to see if he knew, but he was out weeding. Vintage Cecil! If it's not one thing with him, chances are very good indeed it's another. The stories I could tell you about that character! But, I digress... Man 2: Not at all! Carry on, old boy! Man 3: Yes, tell, tell!

This Cecil guy sounds more interesting than Dick. Maybe, you should give Cecil’s number to Lacey.

When you’ve forgotten your eulogy notes, you must just wing it when you take your tern.Even if you lay an egg, you sang out some sweet tweet.There can be no question you had a birds eye view of the event.Just hope nobody cracks when you get down and sink your claws into it.If they do, don’t let it stick in your craw.Whoop it up.

They’re all featherbrained.
Steve Dutch, I agree. Your jokes are something to crow about or at least to twitter.

I’m confused. Did they not like the deceased much or what?
