What do you think of this?

"we have always called", is not an argument, it is an excuse for ignorance

I just laugh it off as you don't know what the hell you're talking about. Ask a Canadian Native and they will explain it to you. You can't see the difference even by looking at them.

OR go here and read and learn:

Ravens (seen right here) often travel in pairs, while crows (left) are seen in larger groups. Also, study the tail as the bird flies overhead. A crow's tail is shaped like a fan, while the raven's tail appears wedge-shaped or triangular. ... Crows give a cawing sound, but ravens produce a lower croaking sound.

crows are not ravens, jeeeesh

a raven is about 40% heavier than a crow. broader shoulders. just bigger overall.

Finally, someone with a brain! 😉

Some are smaller but the tail always tells the story of rather they are raven or crow.

Neither have I but I'm sure he can. He is a lover of music (I think 🙂 )

I agree. Let's make Andy write an opera.

His unhappiness about it might inspire him to write a truly great opera. (The best ones, like Madam Butterfly, are not very happy).

Who can write an Opera?
And fix it up with glue.
Then make swell sounds...
that are just for me and you.
The Handyman.
Oh, the Handyman can.


The Handyman can
Cuz' he mixes in a glove,
and then tightens a screw.
The Handyman.
Oh, the Handyman.

Why did Puccini write operas about such devastated women - all of them? Was he an unhappy man?

I'd love to see you make Andy do anything he doesn't want to do!

Not going to happen.
