The Macaw and Me
With my son's help, I finally got the picture of the Military Macaw and me in my profile. It seems a lot harder to do simple stuff on this site than it is publishing to .mac using iweb. Okay, I am a Mac person, but why should I have to be an ubergeek just to post a simple picture?
Back to the Military Macaw, which is a prop to make me more photogenic: I bought her impulsively in 1965 when I was a poor student irresponsible enough to spend almost my last $450 on a pet that was not allowed in UBC student residence. So I gave the bird to my mother, who has had her ever since. Two husbands have come and gone, but Chico is still my nonagenarian mother's pride and joy.
