Sad. :Sad Tom Lehrer was great! One of my personal favorites from his repertoire, having a degree with a lot of math involved-


If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Very sad, but he did not invent the Jello shot. 

This is easily my fave of his:

Not sure about pigeons, but I could do with a few less Seagulls here (glad I own a white car!)

One more Lehrer-related piece: back when his work was still under copyright, rapper 2 Chainz requested permission to sample “The Old Dope Peddler.” His response (verbatim) was: “As sole copyright owner of ‘The Old Dope Peddler’, I grant you motherfuckers permission to do this. Please give my regards to Mr. Chainz, or may I call him 2?”

You haven't seen bird shit until you've seen pelican shit. More of a problem for boats than cars though. Left uncleaned, pelican shit will eat through the gel coat.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
